| And so it was, that Hobo experienced his first Christmas. Teddy
looked at Hobo with a smile as the family gathered around the tree to open
presents. But, if Teddy Bear remembered anything of their adventures, he
said nothing. Hobo remembered Santa and McBeard. Was it a dream, so real
a dream?
Hobo received gifts from all his family, so many that he couldn't play with them all. He was given hugs and kisses as each gift was placed in front of him. It was so good to be home. He gave licks and kisses back.  .(c)Somehow there were even presents from Teddy Bear, and to Teddy Bear from Hobo. Hobo bounced around the room as he watched everyone ripping open the wonderfully covered packages. He barked along with the children's laughter. So this was Christmas, he had finally discovered and experienced the joy of gift giving. And later he was treated to a special Holiday meal. Most of all, Hobo had found out that Christmas was a time of giving and recieving love, and being home with his family. "Hey Mom, where did this Key come from?" someone said.
