Every Who down in Who-ville, the tall and the small,
was singing! Without any presents at all!
He HADN'T stopped Christmas from coming!
IT CAME!
Somehow or other, it came just the same!...
--Dr. Seuss, How the Grinch Stole Christmas
I've read and seen this story how many times, and I still get teary-eyed when all the Whos down in Who-ville join hands and start singing simply because it's Christmas... I read this story to Lazarus over the past few nights and he just watched me intently as I read. Usually he fidgets after a few minutes of me reading, but something about Dr. Seuss seems to calm him. Or my tone of voice, or whatever.
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night...
