"Put it on your Christ- mas list," said Alicia's morn. "But mom," said Alicia, "1 don't have a Christmas list." "Then make one," said Alicia's mom. "Oh alright. But the you can't tell me to write a Christmas list again, because this is your 17th time saying it," said Ali- cia. "1 still have a lot of Christmas shopping to do.

"Oh yes," said Alicia's mom. "Thank you Santa!" said Alicia. (Dedicated to my mom, (Shirley). Sony if that's not what you wanted! just what I wanted, a remote con- trol car. 1 asked my mom if 1 could stay up all night to sec Santa. She said "No, because you will be tired and grumpy tomorrow." That night 1 stayed up until 1 a.m., then 2 a.m., and I fell asleep at 2:30 a.m. Then at 3 a.m. I heard a noise It sounded like a gust of wind. Then a couple of brown hairs flew through the window. I wondered. "Could it be Santa"? Then I heard a noise. Someone was saying "ho! ho! ho!" It was Santa! Those hairs would probably be reindeer hairs. Then something came down the chimney. It was Santa Claus. He said, "Have you been a good boy?" I said, "Yes." Then I gave him some cookies and some milk. He said "Thanks!". I asked him if I could take a quick picture if him. 1 still have that pic- ture. No one's seen it yet! The Accident By Christopher Roelands Edited by Jonathan Hardy Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Dear old Saint Nick, As you can sec, Flew too low, And crashed into a tree, He lost his temper, And got hot in the head, 1 can see why, He was stuck in his sled. He was so jammed, 1 could hardly get him out, But finally I did, There he stood jolly and stout. He thanked me and thanked me, Then rode off with such glee, Since then he's flown higher, And hit nota tree. We looked up in the sky Then my weird friend Bob said "Oh me oh my!" (repeat chorus) We looked up in the sky His name is Santa Clause As he went by He stopped and looked at us Our bad luck seemed to change And right before our eyes He dropped a porch And it took us by surprise!

Suddenly she heard a bump! She ran to the living room to see what was the matter. She peaked in and saw Santa Claus. She went into the liv- ingroom and said "Hi," Santa said "Hi. You should've been in bed sleeping." "I was but I heard a bump and I came to see what was the matter," she said and she went back to bed. In the morning Leslie and her sisters, Megan and Dana, ran down the stairs to open their presents. Dana got Baby Roller Blade. Megan got a Diary and Les- lie got a puppy. She named it Spot- ty. It was the best Christmas ever. The Birth of Christ By Erika Moore McCurdy Public School Grade 8 When Christ was born on Christ mas day, They laid Him in some yellow hay. People standing all around, With a mantle of snow on the ground. The wisemen came and gave him gifts, All the angles made a wish That when he dies The wish still hes. The baby's name was Jesus Christ Mary and Joseph were very nice. The shepherd came with all his sheep When baby Christ was fast asleep. The three Kings came, With camels tame. With myrrh and gold, In the bitter cold. The boy was born in a cattle shed, The cloth he was wrapped in was beaming red. With the wisernen, kings and ani- mals around, With a mantle of snow still on the ground. Now, at the end they came to sing "Glory to our New Born King". The Funniest Christmas Ever By Dawn Corbett Hensall P.S. Grade 6 Well my Mom's side of the fami- ly who was my Uncle Allen, Grandma and Grandpa Hendrick and Grandma Corbeu as well as my family were all at my Grandma and Grandpa's place. My relatives and I had opened our gifts and had supper. Then we were saying thanks to everybody for the gifts and then we were ready to go and my parents said, "Jason and Dawn, go ride home with your Grandma". My brother would not go home with my grandma because he though that she would get run over by a reindeer. My Mom and Dad said that we won't get run over by a reindeer. So I just went home with my Grandma. The Real "Real Jingle Bells" ++ By Matt Foran and Brent Glavin tl Our Lady of Mt.
