Today Brown Sugar is very excited cause it is Christmas Eve and his grandma and friends are coming over!

For a Christmas treat mommy made a cherry pie for dinner, which is Brown Sugar’s favorite pie.

Then that silly dilly teddy bear poured brown sugar all over Bakeanna’s peanut butter cookies!

His friend Happy the monkey came over and he brought musical instruments for everyone to play, cause Happy the monkey loves to dance!

T here is a cute little mouse name Charlie who has a wife name Annie, and they have four tiny mice children.

They are a very happy family! "But they wasn’t always happy.

For there was a time Charlie could not get a job and he had no home or food for his dear family.

No one wanted a mouse around!

Charlie and his family were very scare, cold and hungry!

His little children would begin to cry."

Little Lilly mouse would cry and say, What shall we do, papa?? Oh what shall we do??

Christmas Eve night came and poor Charlie was so sad for he could not give his loving family a home, food or Christmas presents.

That night they all hid inside the Christmas manger of the Nativity that stood outside a little white wooden church.

At least tonight they shall stay warm and safe.

And tomorrow Charlie will look for food again.

That night as the little mice family were sleeping they were awaken by beautiful singing! They peeped and saw people standing by the Nativity and singing Christmas songs.

As they peeped watching and listening, a little boy and girl saw Charlie and his family.

They put them in their hands and gave each a hug.

Oh how cold you must be," said the girl.

The little girl and boy ask their mommy and daddy if they may take this cold little mice family home. They told them yes they may.

Oh how happy Charlie and his family were!

And they began to sing Christmas songs about Jesus in their cute squeaking mouse voices.
