A-Make-Do-Christmas

<p class=ql-align-justify>Two small children put together a make-do Christmas for their family. They ventured into the woods behind their house to find a Christmas tree. A scrawny little cedar tree was selected</p><p class=ql-align-justify>and planted in a bucket of dirt. The hole they dug in the backyard was where they got their Christmas Dirt.</p><p class=ql-align-justify><br></p><p class=ql-align-justify>Little Mary Jane and Jerry searched the house for items that might be given as Christmas gifts. The items were used but everyone would have a make-do gift under the little Christmas tree.</p><p class=ql-align-justify><br></p><p class=ql-align-justify>The make-do Christmas paper was from brown paper bags; colored with their broken crayons. Since there was no tape...homemade paste was made. The decorations for the tree consisted of a paper chain also from brown paper bags; colored with their broken crayons; a few #2 pencils were hung with thread to give the poor little tree some color; anything that sparkled was also hung on the little Christmas tree. Bill one of the older brothers made a beautiful shinny star; making this little make-do Christmas tree the most beautiful Christmas tree Mary Jane and Jerry had ever seen. Bill placed a small lamp on the floor just behind the little tree...the star and all the sparkly items made the little Christmas tree very happy.</p><p class=ql-align-justify><br></p><p class=ql-align-justify><br></p><p class=ql-align-justify><br></p><p class=ql-align-justify><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p>
