CHRISTMAS BOX

DINNER IS IN THE REFRIGERATOR

- What time ? - You don't want to know, baby ...

Did you wake up, Daddy?

Now yes.

Agree. The music sounds too loud.

Morning! Hi, kid!

- Hi, Dad! Guess what I'm doing today? - What the ?

- A visit to the planetarium! - Stars ! I liked studying the stars.

Yes, Mrs. Warren. I know it's a problem.

I think those in apartment 309 I make figures again.

I'll talk to him again. Try my best. Goodbye !

Tired of being an administrator?

Not at all ! I love arguing with crazy neighbors!

I have good news !

We will have good sales this year. We're leaving here until the New Year!

"Have I already told you?" - Yes, since last year!

This time I'm sure! Where did you put my laptop?

No matter, I found it!

What ?

"Old lady with a big house on the boulevard, ”

"looking for torque for cohabitation and housekeeping. ” No way !

"Preparing meals, household chores light, yard maintenance. ”

- It's perfect for us! - Or a nightmare! She's old!

House and the boulevard! Write that we will have separate and furnished rooms!

"Who knows what that means?" "Let's go there and find out!"

It's the worst time for moves!

For you, it's never good!

I'll take care of the packing. It will last a maximum of half a day.

Richard, you're busy at the store. I stay here all day, in the house!

It's very depressing!

Good. Let's get over it. But Jenna worries me.

The apartment is too small, it limits their development.

I promise I'm thinking.

I was hoping you'd say that. I scheduled a meeting at noon.

Here you go ?

Is that the house?

It's number 150. We are looking for number 141.

I like all !

That's it !

- She's gorgeous! - It's like a prison!

Hello ! You're the Evans family, I guess.

Yes. I'm Richard, this is Keri.

- And Jenna, our daughter. - Hi !

I'm Steven Hoover, Mrs. Parkin's lawyer. Here you go.

The lady didn't hire any more help, but it's been 70 years.

"He thinks he's stronger than he is." - Aha.

I worked for many years for Mr. Parkin.

After his death 14 years ago, I remained the lady's counselor.

It took me a while to convince her that this step is for her own good.

So it wasn't her idea let someone come here.

Not entirely.

"How did Mr. Parkin get rich?" - Through hard work.

Mrs. Parkin? The Evans family came.

- Please take a seat. - Thank you.

- Would you like some mint tea? - Yes, thank you.

I don't, thank you. I don't drink tea.

Mr. Evans, you have an idea how many species of tea are there?

No, I'm afraid I didn't document myself.

Six hundred, divided into 30 genres.

Interesting...

Thank you !

"Are you local?" - We moved from Seattle two years ago.

We immediately liked the city. It's a great place for a family.

- Is he your only child? - Yes.

I'm going to kindergarten!

Before we start the interview, I would like to to clarify the nature of the commitment.

As the ad says, I need it by someone to prepare the meal.

I'm not having breakfast, but I'm waiting for lunch at 11:00 and dinner at 18:00.

The laundry is washed twice per week, Tuesday and Friday.

The bed linen is changing at least once a week.

- And outside, Mr. Evans ... - Yes Mrs.

You need to gather the leaves in the fall

and keep the alleys clean all winter.

All other business I care for others.

It's achievable.

In exchange for these services, I leave you for living the south wing of the house.

- Is it convenient for you? - Of course.

Good. Now I want to put you some very important questions.

- Do any of you smoke? - Not.

Good. Smoking is not allowed in the house.

Don't even allow loud music.

I quit rock in college,

but when Jenna listens to her records, the neighbors call the police!

Daddy!

That's how children are. Do you have children, Mrs. Parkin?

I do not have.

I was kidding. We are very discreet, Isn't that right, baby?

Yes.

Are you employed, Mr. Evans?

Not. I'm an employer, I have my own business.

It's called The Ski Company, maybe you've heard of it.

Not.

- Have you ever skied? "The lady is asking the questions, Richard!"

Nothing. I've never skied, Mr. Evans.

The thought of going down the mountain on two narrow pieces of wood

he never smiled at me. Regret.

- Do you have any recommendations? - Yes.

I'm the manager of our building. That way I can spend more time at home with my daughter.

But we are ready for change. No, Richard?

Yes very much.

As with all candidates, there will be a probationary period of one month.

Thank you for coming.

I love the house!

I studied architecture. The house is really wonderful.

I will let you know my decision in the shortest time.

I'm glad I escaped! It was a disaster, wasn't it?

- Because of you ! - What do you mean?

You shouldn't have talked like that about me !

- I was kidding! - Why do you always burn jokes?

The house is beautiful, but why would you want it to live with that woman?

He has no sense of humor and he won't get close to Jenna.

He had no children.

I know people. It's not as hard as it sounds!

I know people too!

He really needs to go down the mountain on two narrow pieces of wood!

It's okay, Mom. We'll find another place to move.

Listen, Richard!

"An early cold front is moving to the east, from Canada. ”

"There are chances of blizzards and Trojans in the mountainous states! ”

This winter we are breaking the bank, partner!

I hope yes. I promised my wife we ​​would make a profit.

So it will be !

It would be good. That's the only way I'll get rid of the interviews.

How was it ?

I didn't get along with the old woman. She wasn't too welcoming either.

Better ! The apartment is small, but it's your castle!

Yes.

A man doesn't want to live in someone else's castle!

Exactly!

- Father ! "What are you doing awake at this hour?"

"We're celebrating!" - What are we celebrating?

We're moving into Mrs. Parkin's house!

- You're kidding ! - I took the face of the others.

Thank you for coming with me!

It's a crossroads for us. I feel it!

- At least it's a big castle! - Yes.

"Does the woman live here alone?" - She's not alone anymore.

Jenna! Go slow, don't run!

- I can not ! - I'm serious !

I love our new home!

Stay here and take a nap! We have a party tonight!

We need a map to find the way!

This house looks like a museum!

Good thing it's not required let's take off our shoes!

- Where are we going with this? - In bridge.

Good thing you don't have a piano.

- Keri? - Yes, Mrs. Parkin.

After you settle in, we'll talk lunch and dinner menus.

- Yes Mrs ! "You never talked to me!"

"Thank you, George!" - Good. Stop calling me!

I did the right thing for this year.

Now I'm leaving you with the bad grandmother.

- Hold on. And with him. - Thanks !

- See you ! - Tomorrow !

"See what's here!" - Where are we going?

Incredible! The bridge here it's bigger than many people's house!

- We are here ! - It's full of dust!

- It's full of things. - Look, Daddy!

What is it?

Who is ?

Look at this ! Is wonderful ! It's a Christmas box!

Below is an arched key!

- I think it's musical. "Make her sing!"

- I can't, it's locked. "I'm hungry." Do we order anything?

- You have no romance! - I'm kicking out!

- Let's order pizza! - Chinese food.

- The pizza ! - Chinese food !

- Great place! - You'll get used to it.

A little more and it will sound like music to you.

- What type of music ? - Classic.

That's what this house looks like to me. A superb classical music score.

Good morning, Mrs. Parkin!

- Good morning. - How are you feeling today?

- Fine thanks. - Good.

There's a set of porcelain in the kitchen Italian. Could I use it?

For you, not for us.

I prefer this one.

Is it meat and mushroom soup?

Yes, ma'am, is it okay?

This spoon is for cream soup.

I need a spoon for normal soup.

I apologize. I never used elegant cutlery.

If you are willing, I would love for you to teach me.

Good.

It's a good brand for beginners,

but if your son's friends go out on the slope, they will have snowboards.

"He'll want one, too." - Richard! On the phone !

Excuse me for a moment. George, take care of the gentleman.

Hello? Yes, sir. How are you ?

I enjoy the phone. How can I help you ?

Seriously ? Of course yes, I'll check my schedule.

As I find a day off, I'll call you.

It's great ! Thanks for the phone!

Goodbye !

- Who was it ? - Our man from Park City.

And what did he want?

Nothing special. Ask when I can get there to meet his partners.

Yes !

Back to work!

- Where is he going? - I have no idea.

- Is secret ? - I don't think so, Jenna. Come over.

Let's try the new ballet skirt!

It's perfect!

"Is Dad coming to dinner tonight?" - Not tonight.

- Why ? - Let's see ... Make an inventory tonight.

What does "inventory" mean?

He's trying to figure it out if he has enough merchandise for the season.

I don't like inventory.

That's right!

Good evening, Mrs. Parkin.

I'd love to talk, but it's late and I'm leaving early tomorrow.

Mr. Evans, you entered the gate from the north.

The gate ... It's true.

I'd rather use it gate from the east.

The other one is right under my bedroom and I have easy sleep.

Of course. I didn't want to.

I'm going east, no problem.

And please to park your vehicle in the garage.

I noticed you left him in front of the front door.

I'll park in the garage and I will use the east gate. Something else ?

You'll be back just as late every night ?

Most likely, yes. The sales season begins.

- I hope it's not a problem. "And I hope it won't be."

Honey, you remember the investor who would finance the second store?

Yes.

He called me today. He wants to see us as soon as possible in Park City.

So. Let's see what noises you will take it out at night!

You know what I think about the idea of ​​the new store.

Yes, but trust me. It's an opportunity not to be missed.

The investor will put all the money, we bring nothing.

He's interested just our experience.

And time. And so you're more gone.

We have dinner together one day a week.

With the second store two hours away distance, there will be no more.

You do not understand ! It's an offer which does not appear every day!

You do not understand how much you miss Jenna.

And me, by the way.

Keri, the first store it's just subsistence.

Only the second will bring us what we want.

- What ? "A house on the boulevard!"

- We're already here. "Not really, we're just guests."

Not enough. I love you and I want you not to miss anything!

Richard, I already have everything I want.

Richard ...

"Good morning, Mrs. Parkin!" - Good morning.

I used the east gate, Mrs. Parkin.

Richard!

I like it when the leaves rust. Not you?

By the way, you know the Latin word for "maple"?

Not.

"Acer." Acer rubrum. Red maple.

Acer saccharum. Sugar maple.

There are only two of them.

They are very beautiful at this time of year.

Instead of asking me to gather the leaves, he asked me about the Latin name.

"That's the way she is." "It's kind of weird, if you ask me."

It makes me shudder. Everywhere I go, I find her.

- What is this ? - Mary rings the bell when she wants something.

One moment, please.

How he treats you our new owner?

Don't talk to me. Always read from the Bible.

"And from other books." - How do you know ?

Because I see her. You know what ? Sometimes, he leaves by taxi and is away for hours.

He takes his umbrella even when it's not raining.

I hope you wrote it all down.

"Do you want dessert, Mrs. Parkin?" - No, thanks. Just tea.

Good.

I like the arrangement. The lady of the house beyond, the servants here.

Mary is lonely, he has no one.

"I don't mind her anger." - He has a few!

It's sad. Nobody calls her, no one comes to visit.

- I don't know why! "And I noticed something else."

There are no photos in the house. No family pictures, nothing!

It doesn't seem to have passed!

Mom says Mary needs it of friends. We are those!

Our luck!

Sorry...

"Are you reading me a story?" - Not tonight.

- Please ! - Not. It's past bedtime.

- Just a short one. - I'm wrapping you.

- Please ! Please ! - Not !

- Te rooog! - Good...

Only one. Make some room for me !

- Okay ... "The million dollar bear." - Richard, George is looking for you on the phone.

- Coming ! Baby, I'm coming back. - Daddy ...

You're kidding ! The goods must come by 20!

Give me the number. I call him and come back. He dictates.

Richard ...

Richard ...

Richard!

Do you have a dream every night?

- That's your job. - It's interesting.

I'm jealous, I have no recurring dreams.

I'll give you mine.

The angel tells you something else Besides "Richard"?

No, he's just gesturing to me.

- Sign? - By hand. My name is.

Does he wave at you? It's good !

Don't be happy, it's just a dream.

"You didn't weigh enough." - Enough!

I prefer to live alone!

Maybe this family is the problem.

The family is fine. Although the husband is a bit rough.

Mary, you need someone in the house,

to help you when you're not feeling well or you have a night emergency.

- There is an alternative. "Don't even start!"

I don't see why you like it such a big house!

Because it's my home!

There are very good institutions for the elderly.

I don't like old women and the game of bingo!

Then I suggest you adapt.

You owe me keep them for 30 days.

If they are not satisfied, you can try with others.

Richard!

Richard!

Thank you for your visit !

George ! I apologize for the delay.

"You look awful!" - Thank you very much !

- You are sick ? - That house is to blame!

What happened ? Were bodies found in the basement?

The house is strange, the old woman is strange. I'm getting weird too!

And so ? Move!

George, have you ever had a repeated dream?

Yes ... Enough stocks. It's in the business manual.

- I'm serious ! - Do you dream nonsense?

I know it sounds weird, but I've never dreamed like that before.

It's real ! I wake up sweaty lake!

- What are you dreaming about? - You're going to laugh at me.

- Not. I promise. - It's the same thing every night.

An angel motions to me.

- That house is affecting you! - Are you laughing at me !

I shouldn't have been convinced by Keri to move there.

- But it happened. - Not working. We're leaving as soon as possible!

Seriously ! You want us to leave!

- Yes. - I'm sorry, but we can't.

- Why ? "I have an obligation to Mrs. Parkin."

"What obligation?" - I'm engaged!

I think you can understand.

Yes. But your service it affects mine.

You mean your job is more important?

No, but I'd like to move in a good place for everyone.

I am sorry. We're moving only if Mrs. Parkin drives us away!

Why are you leaving with the umbrella when is the sun outside?

It's not nice to peek, baby!

I don't wink, I'm waiting for my father.

It's running down the hall. You should wait upstairs.

I like it here.

Why do you think Jenna broke it?

Your wife would have told me if he broke it during cleaning.

I don't have a cat.

That's the only explanation. It is not like that ?

Maybe it was a ghost? I was joking ...

- I'll talk to Jenna. - I would be grateful. Thank you.

I don't understand why he didn't tell me. I'm home all day.

It's old-fashioned. The man is the head of the family.

Keri ...

I know this is not the time, but I'm leaving for Park City tomorrow.

- Let me know at the last minute ... "I told you I had to go."

I'm only one night away. I'll be back on Friday.

- Go, if you have to ... - It's very important.

But don't forget that Jenna has the dance recital on Friday.

I haven't forgotten. I promise I'll be back in time.

Mrs. Parkin ... Are you busy?

"You mean you have free time?" - Yes.

I wanted to apologize for the broken vase.

And Jena is sorry. He did something for you.

He worked hard, he knows how much you like books.

She would have given it to you herself, but you know, he's scared because ...

- ... broken vases. - Yes.

Hope you like it.

THE RED HOUSE

”It was once like never before a good lady at heart ”

"who lived in a red house."

”The lady had a bunch nice things, ”

”until the day a five-year-old girl he came to live with her. "

"But the little girl wanted a lot for the lady to love her. ”

Mrs. Parkin! Did something happen ?

Everything is fine, thank you. I came to Jenna.

- I don't stay long. - Please come in.

Hi, Jenna.

I came to thank you for your beautiful gift.

I'd like you to read it to me one day the book.

You're going to think, right?

Until then, I'd like to invite you on both over tea this afternoon.

Jenna, it's no big deal.

Actually, I never liked that vase.

It was an ugly thing!

What about tea?

We accept the invitation.

Keri?

Keri?

Anybody here ? Keri?

Jenna?

Don't play with me!

"My love,"

"How cold the snow is this Christmas, without you. ”

"And the fire it only reminds me of how loud "

"I'd like you to be here with me."

"I love you. I love you so much !"

- It was very beautiful ! - You're the best ballerina.

I felt good, Keri. Thanks for invitation !

You made our evening beautiful.

- Hi, Daddy! - Hi, kid!

"I thought you were coming this afternoon." - I've had several meetings.

"It's okay," Mary came. - Seriously ?

We reconciled. I drank tea every day!

"You missed a wonderful evening." - We're going to drink hot chocolate!

- We can add meringues! - Yes !

Come too, if you want!

Richard!

- It's early, what are you doing here? - I couldn't sleep.

What is it?

I apologize that I rushed you last night.

It has nothing to do with this.

Keri, something weird happened last night before you came back.

What the ?

"Do you remember the music box in the attic?" - Yes.

"I heard her!" - Is it still working?

You can say so. I was looking for you on the ground floor.

Then I heard music. I followed her to the attic and it could be heard from the box!

When I arrived, the music stopped. Did you turn the key?

- Not. - It must have been someone!

But the strangest thing is that song coming out of the box

and the one I hear in a dream they're the same.

I know I look crazy.

Either I'm crazy or it's happening something strange in this house!

Maybe you shouldn't to find you strange.

It's easy for you to talk. You don't dream and hear music!

- What if it's not a coincidence? - What do you want to say ?

What if we were destined to come here?

I know you don't want to listen to me and you'd rather go far.

- You got caught! "But think about it."

Maybe we're here for a reason.

- It's for you. - Thank you !

A new teddy bear!

In fact, it's a very old teddy bear.

Where did you get it?

Jenna! It's not nice to ask where does the gift come from!

I'll call him ... Henry!

Come down with your new friend, at home. It's warmer there.

I want to stay here.

We could finish together the book I started.

I have a better idea.

Your father can read it to you, when he returns home.

- Mary! - Yes ?

You knew my father would teach me to ski ?

- Yes ? 'He promised me.

Then I am convinced that it will be so!

He promised other things that never happened ...

Jenna ...

You have to understand that the beginning a new business requires a lot of work

and a long time.

- Is it better at work than here? - Not. Nowhere is better than home.

Then why does he want to be there and not here?

I think sometimes we forget ...

If you need something, tell me, okay?

Richard!

What happened, Mrs. Parkin?

It's kind of cool today. Would you like to light a fire?

Sure you do.

Richard, you know who he was god of fire to the Greeks?

No, but I guess that you will tell me.

Hephaestus, son of Zeus and Hera.

Ready. It's good ?

Yes, thank you.

Richard ... I started a book with Jenna, but we were interrupted.

I told him you would be happy you finish it when you come home.

I wish Mrs. Parkin to think I'll have a job,

before volunteering.

- What is it? - I didn't say anything.

I'm sure Mommy would be happy to read together.

Richard!

Good morning, Richard!

Good morning !

I have a date in town. I think he's on your way.

- Keri can take you. - I let him go, he works too hard.

Edward Plaza. Do you know where he is?

I have lived in the city for two years. I think I know where Edward Plaza is.

Very good. Go ?

I've lived here my whole life.

In my youth, shop windows were decorated a few weeks before Christmas.

Then, immediately after Thanksgiving.

Now we are not even happy on Thanksgiving.

Everyone is busy to sell Christmas.

Stop here.

Richard ...

You know who it was the first Christmas present?

A tie ?

You mean you won't tell me?

Maybe you should think about it at this.

Door ...

Mrs. Parkin, I'm glad you did close to my wife and daughter,

but be honest what don't you like about me

I don't mind you, Richard. On the contrary, I think you have a lot of potential.

Then what exactly do you want from me?

- Take me back home. - Here you go ?

Be here at 2:00 p.m.

At 14:00? I can not...

I'm not your driver!

On the way home, we stopped at church.

Then he wanted to go to the grocery store and at the pharmacy.

Then I put his foot in the doorway. Doesn't he see that I have to run a business?

I think he likes it to get on my nerves.

- You're exaggerating, Richard. - No, it was annoying!

Repeat that the shopkeepers are greedy and he asked me another strange question.

And what ? He always does. What question ?

"What was the first Christmas present?" I replied that a tie.

See ? I found it funny too.

But she ? Not. He said to think again.

I think he's trying to approach you.

Yes ? I have bad news, not working.

Richard ...

I'd like to ask Mary to take it Thanksgiving dinner together.

Here you go ? I already had plans with George's family!

They will not miss us, they have a big family.

- Mary only has us. - Keri ...

- You cooked wonderfully, Keri! - Thank you.

Excellent!

Mrs. Parkin, for how many years do you live in this house

Let me think... For almost 50 years!

Thank you !

And we had a house in Seattle, before we move here.

Why did you move?

Richard had a chance to start a deal with a college classmate.

We sold the house, we moved and I started a new life.

- Deserved ? - Definitely!

Your husband didn't have one either an affair ?

- Yes. - Looks like it was worth it.

He traveled a lot.

When we go to take the Christmas tree?

Our conversation is boring you, it is not like that ?

- Jenna! - Jenna is right.

It's time to deal of a Christmas tree.

I suggest we go next Wednesday at 15:00.

Do you agree, Richard?

I need to check my diary.

I don't know why you're upset.

I worked all day and I came back until dinner.

- Abia. "I had a polite conversation."

"That's polite." - Sorry I wasn't more enthusiastic.

I know what the problem is. You are disappointed, we didn't get along like a happy family.

Is it wrong to want that?

No, but it might not happen. Mrs. Parkin is not ...

Mary's not the problem, it's you! You only care about your business.

You didn't get free not even on Thanksgiving!

I'm glad ! Today I had many customers!

You can't wait to open the second one shop, make a lot of money

and get out of here as soon as possible! Mary will be left alone again!

Why are you criticizing me? because I work hard?

I rushed to set up the business And I did it !

I say that's a cause for praise, not to blame!

I supported you unconditionally for two years! But lately you've changed.

Seriously ! When you're home you are thinking elsewhere.

You'd rather be at the store, not with us!

- Ridiculous! - Really ?

I saw that you are inseparable of George. The perfect team!

You love the store! So much so that you want another one!

You'd rather be unhappy and work for someone else?

You are unjust. You know I don't want that!

Then tell me how to proceed. I am confused !

And me, because I don't want to party all life with an absent husband and father!

Richard ...

Richard!

Richard!

Richard!

Richard!

Keri? Do you hear?

- Keri? You hear the music ? - Richard?

Honey?

"Tell me you can't hear!" - What can I hear?

- The music ! - What music ?

"My love."

"Christmas is here again, a time of joy and peace. ”

"But it remains in my heart a huge goal. ”

"It is said that time heals all the wounds. ”

"But the wounds leave scars"

"That remind you of the pain."

"Don't forget me, my love!"

Richard, it's three in the morning! What are you doing ?

You read the personal letters of Mary!

I didn't go up to the bridge for them! And the problem is high!

I hear music, and you don't!

- Mom! "Did I wake you, baby?"

- I woke up... - A little, Jenna.

It's over, we have to go! This house is not good for me!

- Daddy, I had ... "Wait a minute, we're talking."

I haven't had a night since I came calm ! It's like I'm sleeping!

- Mom! - What is it, darling?

I had a dream with an angel!

He dreamed because you told him!

Until last night, only you and Keri knew about my dream.

- So Jena's dream ... - It's the same as mine!

- It's very weird ! - Really ! It's beyond explanation.

What are you going to do ?

I do not know.

Sorry.

Sorry ...

- Yes ? "Do you have a book on angels?"

Let me think ... Where am I?

- I'm sorry, I'm new. - No problem, I find.

A moment. Jenny! Books with angels!

The "Religion"! Row 15!

I heard. Thank you !

"Angels. Winged Heavenly Spirits ”

”Which symbolizes the connection between Heaven and Earth. ”

"The word comes from Greek. Angelos , meaning messenger. ”

To suppose... I'm not saying I think so.

But let's say there's a reason for my dreams. What could that be?

And what to think about the Christmas box or about letters?

I don't know if she wrote them or were written to him.

"You shouldn't read them anymore." - I don't even want to. Do you know what I think?

They were written to a boyfriend or by one.

It's a private matter, Richard.

There's no picture of her or her husband around the house!

It means they didn't get along. You were wondering why she didn't have children.

He's nice to Jenna. Maybe she couldn't have children.

Or maybe her husband didn't want to. That would have taken them away.

It makes sense! Unshared love.

Her inability to heal suffering. What do you say ?

Mommy!

You realize in the end!

- Good morning, Richard! - Good morning ! How was the walk?

I'm tired today, I came back earlier.

By the way... See you today at 15:00?

- At 3:00? - Yes ! We're going after the tree!

- You forgot ? - I'm sorry, but I'm not coming.

"You promised your daughter!" - Nay ! I said I was checking my diary.

Is it better at 16:00? That's how you will have it time for ... your business.

- Mrs. Parkin ... "I promised Jena I'd go."

I will go !

Okay, at 4:00.

Wonderful!

She's cunning, I don't like the way he sets me up.

I couldn't convince you to leave work.

I came to love her. She's acting like a grandmother to Jenna.

It has a way of being unique, Recognize.

I'm worried. In recent days, he has not felt well.

He is over 70 years old. It's not always full of energy.

I know ... He left home yesterday, just like every Tuesday.

I offered to drive her, but he didn't want to.

"Do you know where he's going?" "No, and I don't even ask."

She told me about her past, but the rest is like a closed book.

Mother ! Father ! I found the best Christmas tree in the world!

- Come on! - Seriously ?

I want this one!

- It's horrible! - Not true !

Sure ! Look, the tip is crooked! You can't put the star!

- I like it anyway! - I like it, too !

- Help me, Keri. - I like it more and more!

Thank you very much !

Richard, with your help, will be very beautiful!

Okay, the star is coming!

You still have room for a globe there.

- That's it! - It looks great!

"I still think you're crazy." - She looks gorgeous!

Let's turn on the light bulbs!

- Is beautiful ! - It is not like that ?

"I've never had a tree so big!" - Know !

Ours were just that!

- I like it there. - Yes !

Thank you !

- Richard, help me! - Immediately!

- I don't see what the problem is, Keri. "He hasn't done that before."

- It comes out every week. - Tuesday. Today is Thursday. It's been a long time coming.

"I've been looking for her everywhere!" - And what do you want me to do ?

Mrs. Parkin!

Mrs. Parkin!

Keri worried. He was afraid something had happened to you.

If you want, I take you home with pleasure.

I'd like to sit down for a while, if you do not mind.

"Are you all right?" - Yes, thank you. You?

"I searched the whole city for you." "Forgive me if I confused you."

Mrs. Parkin ...

I'm having a question.

How you chose us of all the candidates?

We're not on the same wave.

You remind me of my husband.

Sorry for the question, but is that good or bad?

It depends on the year.

- Is he in the attic painting? - That was a bad year.

I never liked that one painting. It seemed arrogant to me.

Yes, he looks stiff.

It wasn't always like that. In the early years by marriage, we were a normal couple.

We were making beautiful plans for the future.

But unfortunately, people can change.

David has changed. It started to travel a lot. He made a fortune.

And success made him to always want more.

Richard, Have you thought about my question before?

What was the first Christmas present?

- It's working. "It's not a random question!"

I'll think again. I promise !

Hello sweetheart ! I had an interesting afternoon!

However, I did something. Now we know where it goes every time.

She didn't get along with her husband, but I think she loved him.

He visits her grave every week.

I'm surprised I haven't seen her until today. I pass by on my way to work.

Richard ...

Mary is not feeling well at all.

What do you mean?

After you came back, she asked me to take her to the doctor.

What's the matter ?

Heart problems.

Take treatment for many years, but tests show it doesn't help anymore.

What will he do?

At her age, the doctors can't help her anymore.

The doctor says her heart is failing.

- I am sorry... "I don't know how to tell Jena."

Don't feel sorry for me!

I wanted you to know that if we can help you in any way ...

Jenna and Keri are here, that reassures me.

- Good night, Mrs. Parkin. - Good night, Richard.

Yes, it's coming on Tuesday. Ski boots have arrived,

but we still have to order snowboards. They are like hot bread!

We have about ten more. And conservatives love them.

Do you place an order?

Hello! Richard!

- What is it? "You didn't listen to me at all, did you?"

- I just missed the beginning. - Snowboards.

Yes. Good.

"Why doesn't Mary eat with us anymore?" - He's out of power.

You let me get up from the table?

It feels worse and worse, it is not like that ?

She ate in her room most of the week.

I feel it's not just the disease that keeps her there. I'm helpless, I have nothing to do.

I feel guilty for all the bad things which I told her about.

- Do not have to... - I'm serious.

He wants something from me, but I don't know what, to please them.

Yes ?

Mrs. Parkin, do you let me in

Of course.

I thought about the question about the first Christmas present.

I know what it was.

Love.

The first Christmas present it was love.

It's a start, Richard.

Why is it so important to you? to find the answer?

Because unfinished things, I think.

It's cold outside today, I'm ready a good vegetable stew.

Mary?

Mary!

- Reserve 400? - The second door on the left.

Why I wasn't allowed to to stay in the hospital with mommy?

Because it was time to go home.

Will Mary come home for Christmas?

No, baby Mary is very ill.

Will die ?

Yes, Jenna, I'm afraid so.

I want to give her the Christmas present before.

Very nice !

Let's go to sleep.

- Daddy, do you think there are angels? "I didn't see any real ones."

That means if you don't see, does not exist ?

- It's not like that. That means faith. - What the ?

Faith. Believe in something you can't see.

Like angels?

Yes...

Like angels.

Richard ...

Richard ...

Richard!

Hi !

- You're very tired. - I had a long night.

The doctors are trying to soothe her. He sleeps intermittently.

"You don't have to stay." - But I want !

I have to go a little, but call me if anything happens.

Sure you do.

I brought you something, Mary. It's your Christmas present.

It is very beautiful !

Thank you, Jenna.

Thank you too, dear, for your friendship.

It meant a lot to me!

I know it doesn't burn your party, but come and greet the people!

After I finish here, I have to go back to the hospital.

George ... I have a question.

- When was the last time I went skiing? - Skiing ?

Yes, skiing. We used to like it a long time ago.

- I haven't found time. - It's weird, isn't it?

We sit among piles of skis but we don't have time for work

for which I went into business.

I wish I had time for these details, but ...

We had agreed to hire help after the store starts running.

And let's stay home longer, with family.

- What happened to this idea? - It's still there, it's just postponed!

I don't want to postpone it anymore.

What do you mean?

George... I don't want the second store anymore.

I don't want to postpone my family anymore.

Richard, I know you're stressed now.

I'm sorry about Mrs. Parkin.

Let's talk after the holidays.

George, you know who it was the first Christmas present?

A tie.

Finally, the smile I like. Come on!

OUR ANGEL

"My dear Andrea."

"I wish I could tell you these things face to face ... ”

"It simply came to our notice then and that hurts. ”

"When I had to let you go,"

"I understood the boundlessness of love God's,"

"Who gave Himself His Son."

"With faith, my hope also increased. ”

"I hope I will hold you in my arms again."

"Until then, I love you, My angel."

"Mother."

Hello, Mr. Hoover.

Keri, Mrs. Parkin had a daughter.

Andrea. He died at the age of five.

Jena's age.

The letters were for Andrea.

He has lived with this pain to this day.

The doctor said that it doesn't take her long.

Mary!

Mary!

Richard ...

Mary, I'm sorry ... You should have told us about Andrea.

Now I understand, Mary.

The first Christmas present ...

... he was a child!

"For God so loved the world"

”So that His Only-begotten Son He gave it. "

Take great care of your family, Richard!

Andrea!

Mary ...

Mary wanted, in her generosity,

so we can make her home, our home.

We value the house and we want to grow the daughter in her loving arms.

But the greatest gift which Mary gave me

was the lesson I learned.

about how precious it's our time here,

about love and family.

The lesson that came in the Christmas box.
