This was the year we stayed in Clovis, New Mexico, instead of traveling to Oklahoma for Christmas, because Mother was pregnant with my sister Janice, who would be born on January 5.
Mike and I got metal toys: a ferris wheel for him and a roller coaster for me. And he got an entire cowboy outfit and twin cap guns, and I got a doll with brown pigtails.
We went to church on Christmas Eve, and Dad sang in the choir. I loved the crisp sounds of "Hark, the Herald Angels Sing," the sharp edges of the words reminded me of pickles!
Christmas; I was seven
