A Cartwright Christmas (by LoisB)
Synopsis: This story is a continuation of the Cartwright “saga” that I began with Journey East. It takes place about eight years after the conclusion of Vignettes and introduces Ben’s eleven grandchildren. It describes some Cartwright Christmas traditions, as I imagine them to be. The focus is on Adam and how he relates to and deals with his four children.
