On behalf of the entire staff of the Twilight Lexicon, we wish all our readers Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
Two years ago before everyone knew about Twilight, Stephenie wrote an article for Ensign Magazine about the spirit of Christmas. We thought it might be a great time to share it with readers who have never heard of it, and to share it again with those who have.
Hero at the Grocery Store, by Stephenie Meyer.



Merry Christmas!!
Merry Christmas! And that is a very good story. =]
Wow, hat story was so good. It reminded me of Terms of Enderment, when the mom cant afford to uy all her groceries, but this one had a better ending. That is really what Christmas is about, Aw I’m teary eyed now!
Wow! I remember reading this story two years ago! I had no idea that she had written it. Awesome!!
Merry Christmas!! The story was very good!!
This is why stephenie is one of my heroes. That was so touching, I had to choke back tears. I’m glad to have read that.
what a lovely story. Made me sad. Merry Christmas everyone!
Wow
hmmm…
lessons learned in the moment, but never used thereafter, never became a lesson afterall. They just became a slap in the face. A “look what you have done to help” remark.
But when you walk through life and remember the sting of the slap and decide to do something about it by helping people every chance you get, then it becomes a lesson learned and lived.
I wonder, to which degree has SM learned? Does she still just mearly walk around still feeling the sting, or has she learned and lived her lesson?
Haha, I knew about Twilight two years ago… but I’ve never read that. It was an excellent story. And Merry Christmas to every one at the Lexicon! You guys are great!
Feliz Navidad!!!!!
Merry Christmas to you, too, Lexicon Staff =)
And to all the Twilighters as well!
Merry Christmas to the Lexicon Staff and all those Twilighters out there!!

I was reading the story aloud to my soon to be brother-in-law when my fiance turns to me and says “I read that story in the Ensign a few years ago. Who wrote it?”
