Meaning of Christmas

"Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before!
'Maybe Christmas,' he thought, 'doesn't come from a store.
Maybe Christmas… perhaps… means a little bit more.'" -- How the Grinch Stole Christmas by Dr. Seuss

The theme for our classroom Christmas tree this year is "How the Grinch Stole Christmas," a storybook by Dr. Seuss.

The above quote comes from the book and explains that the Grinch learned Christmas is about more than just presents and other items bought from a store. Although he had taken away the gifts and decorations, the Whos of Whoville were still happy and enjoyed Christmas.

With that in mind, please leave a comment telling what Christmas means to you.
