20、 their families as Christmas gifts. So the group gathered pine cones, put them in water and bought wire wreath frames and adhesive(黏合剂) to hold everything in place. A few days before Christmas, they and their leaders delivered the finished handiwork.Through the years, we proudly hung up her wreath e
21、ach Christmas. In 1986, the wreath was hanging on our door as usual when the temperature on Christmas Day reached 80 degrees. The adhesive began to break down and the pine cones started falling all over our front porch. We took the wreath down, planning to repair it, and gathered up the pine cones.
22、That spring, as my husband, Don, was weeding the flower bed in front of our house, he was surprised to discover a small evergreen plant.We decided to leave it alone.

29、ne hospitals without newborn nurseries. But how did this slightly unusual, if precious, concept of putting babies on show come into being?Well, they're not really for putting babies on show. Firstly, they were created as an area for nurses to take care of all of the new babies, separate from the
30、ir mothers. Newborn nurseries have been around pretty much since moms started having babies in hospitals. In the early 1900s, hospitals replaced homes as the primary place to give birth. Hospitals built maternity wards(产科病房), and those wards had nurseries with windows.According to S, a 1943 pub
31、lication gave two main purposes for the nurseries. The first purpose was to allow the relatives to see the new babies. The windows, however, were to keep the babies safe and clean while they were being admired by relatives. And that sanitary concern is right and reasonable. Babies' immune system
32、s(免疫系统) are not yet developed, which has to do with the frightening reason you should be careful about letting people kiss your new baby. However, the S article does admit that solid walls would be even more effective at keeping bacteria and viruses out than windows. Not to mention they wo
33、uld be more cost-effective. So, yeah. the primary purpose is still to look at the cute babies. Some hospitals would offer individual viewings so that relatives could have some quality time with their new member. In the mid- to late twentieth century, these nursery viewings were often the first time
34、fathers got to see their new babies.Today, though, the nurseries mean a lot to many hospital visitors and family members. Dotti James claims that "the nursery window has become a destination for patients and families from other parts of the hospital experiencing a health crisis.Standing outside
