I had better get to bed before Santa comes knocking! knocking! I have no chimney, no I'treplace; I'treplace; Somehow I've got to get out of litis place! There is no snow, the grass is green; If it rains one more day I think I'll scream. I know I won't get what 1 asked for this year; Oil well, I guess I'll have a rootbeer! My Mom and Dad have gone to bed. The dog is lost and 1 bumped my head! Nothing is going according according to plan, Have a Merry Christmas and a great New Year. Man! Kaitlin My Wishes for the World My wish for the world is to grant peace and to take care of others who need it. My other wish is to slop the hatred and war so that everyone everyone could be safe from harm, and to give as much food and clothing as you can to the Salvation Army. Always lie kind and gentle to each other. As I always say, give a helping helping hand! Caring for others could help make the world a better place. Helping others is one of the best tilings to do. Read a Christmas story on the night before Christmas. I enjoy the Christmas holidays holidays very much. Santa will be giving out presents on Christmas Eve. The Christmas holidays will be coming soon. Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night. As the year goes by Christmas is my favourite time of the year. Stockings full of surprises. Shannon What Christmas Means to Me Christmas is the birth of Jesus, and everybody sharing together. Christmas is the smell of mom's homemade cookies, and eating them. That's the best thing about them. Christmas is going home to see my family and friends. Christmas is cutting down a Christmas tree and bringing it home, decorating it with lights and all my special special ornaments, especially our angel ! But the most important thing in the world, is seeing my family. Derek The Night Before Christmas The night before Christmas I'm still awake. I have an urge for some cake. I can't wait 'till morning I think I'll go on a date. At midnight I hear a boom I fall off my bed in my room. I see an elf I knocked over my shelf I hear a jiimlc in the jinule hell. I'm tired so I go to sleep - not a peep. When I got out of bed I open up my presents happy as can be. The end.
