The True Meaning of Christmas
The true meaning is Christmas with love
and caring for one another. It is giving gifts
and remembering Christ was born.
A little child likes Santa Claus and.
believes in him giving gifts. Older children
and grown-ups should focus on our lord
Jesus Christ.
Everyone in our school is exchanging
candy -grams to help the starving of
Ethiopia.
When I was in Loas, people didn't give gifts
to one another as we do in Canada.
Children can show the true meaning of
Christmas by loving, sharing and, caring for
their Mom and Dad.

Remember love
'Twas on a Sunday morning when the days
were growing cold. Everybody talks about
decking the halls with good cheer, exchang-
ing gifts and visions of sugar plums dancing
in their heads, but do they really know the
true meaning of Christmas. I diten wonder
what goes through people's heads on this
joyous morn. People are greedy when this

time of year comes around. They brag about
everything they get and hope they get more
presents then anyone else this is not the true
meaning of Christmas. I know Christmas is
a time for joy, but for what reason? Is it all
the gifts from Santa or being around others
that gives us that feeling to hug someone. I
know some people believe that the reason
we celebrate Christmas is because Christ
was born and that is very true. People
should be happy with the many gifts they get
from God. Remember love is the true mean-
ing of Christmas along with Christ's birth.

Done in ajiffy
If I were an elf I would work hard and I
would help Mrs. Claus. I would help get San-
ta all ready, and he would be gone in a jiffy.
I would build lots of toys. I would wrap
paper as neat as I could, but I am not an elf.
I wish I was, but I'm not. Too bad!
