The older two weren\u2019t interested in hearing it again, but agreed to take a photo of Granddad reading the story to CJ. Cj is still too young to really know what Christ\u2019s birth is all about, but he does love to have stories read to him. Then, in his own time, he\u2019ll take a book and \u201cread\u201d it to himself.<br \/>\nHe sat very still and attentive as Granddad read the story. The next day, we sent the book home with him. Hopefully, he\u2019ll enjoy the story for years to come. Maybe he\u2019ll even remember the warm fuzzy feeling we all had as we shared that tradition of the night before the night before Christmas, 2012.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2018Twas the night before the night before Christmas by Kate Chamberlin Our three grandsons, ages 14, 12, and 2-years old, were staying over-night with us on the night before the night before Christmas.
