One Christmas, my family hung a large, beautiful wreath on our front door to welcome the holiday season. As the days went by, we noticed a curious sight - a rooster had taken up residence in the wreath and was sleeping there every night! At first, we were surprised and a little amused by this unusual behavior, but as time passed, we grew quite fond of our feathered friend. We would leave some seeds and grains nearby for him to eat, and he would always greet us with a cheerful crow whenever we came home. This heartwarming event took place in 1992 and became a cherished memory for our family, a symbol of the unexpected joys that the holiday season can bring.
