"The Romance of a Christmas Card" by Kate Douglas Wiggin is a heartwarming narrative set in the quaint village of Beulah. The story unfolds on a Christmas Eve when Mrs. Larrabee, the minister's wife, visits her friend Letty Boynton, who is caring for her absent brother David's twins. Letty, a steadfast and selfless woman, has sacrificed her own dreams to raise the children after their mother passed away and David disappeared. The narrative explores themes of duty, love, and the longing for familial connection. Mrs. Larrabee, a vibrant and supportive friend, encourages Letty to open her heart to the possibility of David's return, symbolized by a candle in the window meant to guide the Christ Child. Meanwhile, Mrs. Larrabee finds success in creating Christmas cards, one of which features Letty's home and becomes a symbol of hope and reconciliation. As Christmas approaches, both Letty and Mrs. Larrabee reflect on their lives and the choices they've made. The story culminates in a chance encounter between David and Dick Larrabee, the minister's estranged son, on a train bound for Beulah. Both men, having faced their own struggles and regrets, are drawn back to the village by the pull of family and the spirit of Christmas. The narrative weaves together themes of redemption, the enduring power of love, and the possibility of new beginnings, all set against the backdrop of a snowy New England village.
