An old man stood in the doorway. “Could you spare a stranger a

bite to eat?” he asked.

Disappointment choked off Jack’s words and made his eyes water.

Jack could tell his mother was as let down as he was, but she

invited the man to come in from the cold. “You’re welcome to share

our breakfast,” she said.

The stranger ate fast without saying much. When he’d

finished every last crumb, he thanked them and left.

Jack watched the man walk off toward the tracks. Jack hoped—

prayed—that strangers had invited his dad to share their breakfast.

Jack wished he’d taken the time to talk to the stranger, to wish him a

Merry Christmas.

“Jack, don’t forget your cookie,” Mom said.

Jack ran his finger along the grooves of the angel’s wings.

He could almost hear the old woodcarver. “That’s it!” he exclaimed.
