What Christmas movie is this?

Question

I believe I used to watch it around eight years ago, or so.
It's animated, but not really old. It involves a little girl being really ill around Christmas time, and she has a brother. I'm not sure if he's older or younger though. And I remember one scene where she's eating soup..
I think she and her brother go on a trip somewhere to a really big place like a castle.. or it might be in the story being read to her. She has both parents living with her.. And she has short blonde hair. That's all I can really remember. All the rest of it is in my head. If you have any idea what this movie is, please let me know. Thanks. :)

Answer 2

If you can pull up any more details, that might help. There's the animated 1968 movie "The Night Before Christmas" where Clement C. Moore's daughter gets pneumonia and asks for a Santa Claus story. He then writes the "Twas the Night Before Christmas" poem. It's on YouTube so you can check to see if that's it easily enough.

Otherwise, can you think of anything else?
