(B)
Elizabeth lived with her six children in a small house. One winter, there was a big flood and quite a few houses were washed away, but her house was high enough to escape it.
Elizabeth took in one of the families which had lost everything. She shared her home until the family could build another house. Elizabeth's friends could not understand why she wanted to give so much when she already had so many children to support.
"Well,"Elizabeth explained to her friends, "At the end of World War I, there was a poor woman in a town in Germany. Her husband had been killed in the war and she had a lot of children, just like me now. "
"The day before Christmas, this woman said to her children, 'We won't be able to have much for Christmas. I'm going to get just one present for us all. Now I'll go and get it. ' She came back with a little girl who had no parents. 'Here's our present,' she said to her own children. "
"The children were more than excited to get such a present. They welcomed the little girl warmly, and she grew up as their sister. I was that Christmas present. "
