A Christmas Memory

Q: What were some of the scenes from the story that you thought were more powerful?
Quick Write:
When they walk way out into the woods to fly a kite that Buddy made. It showed me that friendship can last even from the smallest gifts or things. Although the best present her friend got was a sack of orange, she was thankful. Her favorite was still the kits. When I read that from the story, I looked to the friend as a hero. When I used to go to church they would tell me to think of the poor and then think of yourself. They would tell me that be thankful what you have. When at the end of the story where her friend dies, she uses an item that brings the most memory to describe her friend. This means that her friend is very important to her and she will never forget her. This is powerful because she used a kite as her friend and a fruitcake weather to describe her loss. At the end she says that instead of the hearts she sees when her friend was there, its now the kite flying to heaven. The kite represents her dead friend flying to heaven, it was touching.
