Ben's Christmas Performance

Ben was the only one to have a Christmas performance/party this year. All the big kids were off track so they didn't have one. We all went to see Ben at school sing songs and recite poems. His teacher had each of the kids say what they wanted for Christmas this year. Ben's request: a bench! What!?! He wanted a bench at home like the one at school. We were a bit surprised and at home we talked about sometimes not always getting what we asked for. To all of our great surprise my stepfather Dexter delivered one mighty cute bench the following week without even knowing Ben's request. I guess Santa sometimes gets help from others.
