PM Have you ever wondered about the legend of the Poinsettia? On a Christmas Eve long ago, Pepita was sad. This little Mexican girl wanted more than anything to give a ruse present to the Christ Child at the church service that evening. But she was very poor and had no gift. As she walked sorrowfully to church with her cousin Pedro, he tried to console her. So Pepita gathered a bouquet of common weeds from the roadside and entered the church. As she approached the altar, her spirits lifted. She forgot the humbleness of her gift as she placed it tenderly at the feet of the Christ Child, and there was a miracle! Pepita's ordinary weeds burst into brilliant red blooms! They were called Flores de Noche Buena, Flowers of the Holy Night. We call them poinsettias. "Pepita," he said, "I am certain that even the most humble gift, gizen_in love, will be amptable in His eyes."
