Fifteen-year-old Rob and his family live on a farm. Rob helps his father with the endless chores that farming demands, although rising before the sun isn't Rob's favorite task.
On Christmas Eve, Rob was in bed wishing he had more money to buy a better present for his father, something more than the necktie he'd bought. Suddenly, he realizes he does have something more to give, something that doesn't require money - a gift of true love from Rob to his father.
