We Used to Have a Little Boy | A Christmas Letter of Grief and Grace — Read by Irene Dunne

A small notice in a newspaper. Just a few lines. “Is there any place where we can borrow a little boy for the Christmas holidays? We used to have a little boy, but he couldn’t stay, and we miss him.” A mother who has known her own loss reads those words… and answers. And two households, each marked by grief, find joy where neither expected it. Not a replaced love, but a shared one. This is a story of loss that softened, hearts that opened, and the quiet ways Christmas brings people to one another.
