As the family started walking down Jefferson Street, snow began falling all around them creating a most awesome sight on Christmas Eve. The beauty of the snow transformed the drab city streets into a winter wonderland. They longer they walked, singing along the way, the spirit of Christmas filled their hearts to overflowing. They felt an Unseen Presence walking among them and the presents under their tree no longer held any significance, even for the children. All of a sudden, Lydia began squealing with delight as she pointed to a bridge in the distance. Look! See those puppies and kittens, and bunnies and that beautiful white bird. They're all going over there. Let's go see what's going on. Dad took Lydia by the hand while Mom and Mary walked close behind in a wonder of anticipation. The closer they came to the bridge, a radiance enveloped this forsaken, out of the way place. What could it mean?The family reverently moved closer to the bridge and what unfolded was nothing less than a miracle. These seven homeless children had transformed the desolate bridge into a living Nativity. The miracle of the Christ Child was being portrayed powerfully as these children acted out the First Christmas Story. It seemed as if every stray animal found their place in this amazing and poignant, holy place. As the family of carolers drew near, the homeless children miraculously captured the wonderment, the simplicity of the Holy Family so long ago.Even when the moment was broken and the children realized they were not alone, there remained a peace and quiet joy the Stevenson family had never experienced. Suddenly all their earthly treasures seemed so meaningless and hollow. For before them and for the first time ever, Mary and Lydia discovered the true meaning of Christmas. So did their parents.Mr. Stevenson was so overpowered by this miracle moment that he felt as though heaven had come down and filled this lowly place. He heard himself say, Surely this must have been what it was like 2,000 years ago when Jesus first came! The children's Christmas wish lists were totally forgotten in this special, holy moment.
