We have many memories of Uncle Doug, but this one is the strongest and fondest to the four Little girls. Our mother is Norwegian and as such we celebrated our Christmas on Christmas eve...yes, we got to open our presents too! Santa even came early to surprise us. We would all get ready for church dressed in our special Christmas dresses and head out to the 7pm service. We were most concerned that Santa would be able to find our house, get into the house, know what time we had left for church, and what time we would be back! We were assured by our parents that he would know, he is magical. Mom was most concerned as she was often hosting many extended family members and was fussing to make sure that dinner was prepared, table was set and drinks were ready to go. Once church was over we were desperate to get going, but mom and dad would love to chat, and chat, and chat. Finally, we would make our way home and as we pulled into the driveway our excitement could not be contained. For many years Uncle Doug was waiting for us in the driveway as he was locked out of the house. We told mom and dad that they had talked too long and had kept him waiting. Once that door was opened I imagine you could not only feel our excitement but hear it too...Santa had indeed arrived! The four Little girls would like to thank our magical Uncle Doug for waiting on the driveway. With love, Karen, Ingrid, Britta, and Lara
