Simon and his mother don't have much. They live in a cardboard house, they have a little Christmas tree with a few decorations, and a picture of an angel, December, from a calendar pinned to a wall. Simon's mom tells him that the angel sings to them when they are asleep.
On Christmas Eve, Simon and his mother take in an old woman who needs a place to keep warm. The next morning, Simon wakes early to find the old woman gone. Instead he sees their Christmas angel outside, with her wings fanned out over their little house. Is she real?
Simon and his mother's luck changes after their encounter with the old woman.~Mary Jo
