英国男孩收到意外圣诞礼物

The magic of Christmas has already arrived at one home in Bootle. 

圣诞的神奇之处似乎已经降临到布特尔(英国城市)的一家人身上了。

 
Becky Phelps says she was heartbroken when her six-year-old son Harvey told her that older boys at school had said Father Christmas was not real. 
 
The 25-year-old mum tried to tell the youngster that they were wrong - but she says she could tell by the look in her son's eyes that he was struggling to believe - so she had an idea. 
 
Harvey's favorite film is The Polar Express, starring Tom Hanks, which portrays a little boy's North Pole Christmas adventure. 
 
At the end of the film he can be seen holding a special 'believe' bell - to remind the youngster Father Christmas is real. 
 
Quick thinking Becky took to Facebook to ask where she could buy a replica of the bell. 
 
The next day, a woman knocked at their home with a gift bag and quickly left without saying who she was. 
 
Inside was a 'believe' bell. 
 
Becky gave it to Harvey telling him the special gift had mysteriously delivered especially for him. 
 
Becky said: "His eyes just lit up. He's been running round saying 'I believe' ever since and telling our dog, his best friend, that Father Christmas is real - and he can't believe he ever doubted him. 
 
"I cannot believe a random stranger would do this for us. She's our Christmas angel."
