Summary edit

Description

Today, 24th December is Christmas Eve and for children all over the world is a day of delicious anticipation and hope. Sometimes the wait is worthwhile and sometimes the gift is not quite what was wanted. These beautiful children have a great array of toys - but the boy holding the racquet looks like he would have preferred a guitar! May all the boys and girls get what they wish this year, especially those who need a home, peace or love!

May we three Mary's wish you all a very Happy Christmas and a peaceful and prosperous New Year!
