Navy Midshipmen Silent Service T Shirt

First ask your parents if they need any help with anything (chores, dishes, running errands, etc.). Then make sure your room and bathroom are tidy and that none of your belongings are scattered around the house. Now, take a bath if you do that at night, get dressed for bed and brush your teeth and get out the Bible andread the Christmas story. (My favorite one is the first 2 chapters of Luke in the New Testament). This would be awesome to do with your family. Now say a prayer with your family, give each person a hug and go to bed. Now it gets harder! Close your eyes and try to remem ber everything you can about the Christmas story in the Bible and about Christmases in the past. Remember gifts you gave, food you ate, carols you sang, everything you can remember. If you are still awake, say your own silent prayer and ask God to help you relax and fall asleep. Then lay perfectly still on your back. Make sure you are comfortable and that the lights are off in your room.

‘On the evening before Christmas Day, one of the parlours is lighted up by the Navy Midshipmen Silent Service T Shirt, into which the parents must not go; a great yew bough is fastened on the table at a little distance from the wall, a multitude of little tapers are fixed in the bough … and coloured paper etc. hangs and flutters from the twigs. Under this bough the children lay out the presents they mean for their parents, still concealing in their pockets what they intend for each other.” The shadow of the bough and its appendages on the wall, and arching over on the ceiling, made a pretty picture, and then the raptures of the very little ones, when at last the twings and their needles began to take fire and snap! — Oh, it was a delight for them! Formerly, and still in all the smaller towns and villages throughout North Germany, these presents were sent by all the parents to some one fellow, who in high buskins, a white robe, a mask, and an enormous flax wig, personate Knecht Rupert, the servant Rupert. On Christmas night he goes round to every house, and says that Jesus christ his master sent him thither, the parents and elder children receive him with great pomp of reverence, while the little ones are most terribly frightened.
