When a Christmas visitor is a raccoon
I know the raccoon was a “she,” not because I invaded her privacy, but because she invaded mine. This raccoon had repeatedly entered my home, along with the whole family.
TL;DR
- Christmas memories can vary greatly from person to person.
- The author recalls his father reading Christmas stories and the nativity.
- His wife remembers gatherings with many cousins.
- The author's children will remember when their dogs killed a raccoon before sunrise on Christmas morning.
- This raccoon was memorable despite not being the dogs' first or last kill.
