    A young boy wrote a letter to his recently deceased grandmother expressing his grief over her loss and reminding his family that the true meaning of Christmas is love, not gifts. The boy's mother shares the letter, written phonetically to reflect his speech patterns related to ADHD, to show how he mourns in a way not expressed through tears and to change how they view their son.

    " WE KNOW HOW YOU LOVE THOSE BRIGHT COLORS"

    MEANING OF CHRISTMAS My mother Lynda Stacey passed away this year on October 27th. My youngest son Clayton Stacey was at school the day after our church Christmas play. Clayton has ADHD and has a hard time with school and learning. Clayton decided to write a letter to his Nannie and in this letter he writes words the way they sound to him. This letter was found in his book bag and would have possibly been thrown away with other trash. I do not think he intended for us to read it but after we did we realized that it would change the way we look at our son. He grieves in a way that is not always expressed in tears. Anyways this letter could be the true meaning of Christmas. From a childs perspective it is not always about the gifts you plan to get for Christmas but sometimes about the gifts you already had that can never be replaced. What they shared towards each other was the true meaning of Christmas LOVE.
