When white frosts the barnyard fence posts and snow blankets cover the fields when boughs on the pines hang heavy and snowdrifts pile next to the barn
that’s when we start to get ready for Christmas on the farm
Is it Christmas yet I ask The little red barn usually looks forgotten and shabby but today it dazzles in the winter sunshine Soon Daddy says
I want to buy a tree and start decorating right away But Mama laughs and says to slow down We’re keeping things simple this year for Christmas on the farm
