Immediately, he said, “Yes. Last Christmas you promised us a special    22    that I really wanted but you never gave it to me.”

Again, his   25    was immediate, “Remember last Christmas when Mom said you had to go to the  26    because Stephen was going to be born? You left us at home and  27        in a hurry. Remember?”
