The legend
With Christmas right around the corner and the tree decorated with presents underneath. My family starts watching Christmas movies and listening to Christmas tunes non-stop. We also like to read Christmas stories. We went to the Library the other day and picked up a few. One they didn’t have was “The legend of the Candy Cane “(they must have just been borrowed out) Have you ever read it? There’s also a little poem and also a DVD . There’s a book called the Candymaker’s gift that is really cute too. I actually don’t own any of the books but i’ve read them a couple of times. I think I may need to buy one or both for the house and the girls.
Here’s a poem for you to enjoy:
“The Legend of the Candy Cane”
Look at the Candy Cane- What do you see?
Stripes that are red like the blood shed for me.
White is for my Savior who’s sinless and pure!
“J” is fr Jesus my Lord. That’s for Sure!
Turn it around and a staff you will see-
Jesus, my shepherd was born for me!
