Looking back at Christmas Past I think about the old type lights on a tree in the setting room and looking at the few but great gifts wrapped under the tree knowing the odd shapes were toy tractors and equipment. The things that made a year wait worth wile. But it was to barn after breakfast to do milking and chores.Hugging buckets of milk and feed, gathering eggs, chipping water tanks,getting corn from the crib,Trudding snow, winds blowing so cold so hard.Grandpa getting the old tractor running, pulling the manure spreader to the manure door
loading it with a pitch fork, then riding on the drawbar jumping off to open gates getting into stock ground spreading the load, going back to the barn putting the old tractor away . Then me and GrandPa walked and sang Christmas songs all the way to the house. On the back porch we left our snowy frozen work clothes,and in to the warm kitchen Where GrandMother greeted us! She gave me a kiss And a warm glass of coca, and GrandPa his coffee. Then it was to the tree. And I opened
my gift a shinny toy 560 Farmall tractor.That was Christmas 1959. I still had it till july 1997 when I lost it in a fire.
The tractor may be gone now! But I still remember a special Christmas.
I hope you have a special Christmas memory in you heart, And a special Christmas this Year!
Merry Christmas Dann and Nancy Weaver
