It was the night before
Christmas. I was lying itt
bed thinking. about the
next day, too excited to
fall asleep. Thinking, and
thinking and thinking, I
fell off to a deep s-1--e---e--
--p.
What a dream world I
was in . Candy canes
floating around. I decided
to grab one. I reached out
and took one from
floating around me. I tore
the wrapper off it. I put it
in my mouth. I never did
ever taste a candy cane
like that ever before.
Then the _next thing I
know I'm standing beside
a heavenly beautiful
Christmas tree.
Underneath there was
.some gifts. One for mom ,
one for dad, one for the
baby, and finallyrone for
me! I couldn't wait to
open my gift. My con-
science told me not to, but
I had to . I reached out,
grabbed the gift and
PUFF!
There I was, lying in
bed again. "Boy! would -I
like another dream like
that," I thought.
The next morning I
went and woke mom up.
She went and got the
baby. We all went
downstairs.
Then I.saw candycanes
floating around me, But I
knew they were hung by
strings. Then, another
heavenly beautiful
Christmas tree. And
underneath this tree were
some gifts. One for mom,
one for dad, one for the
baby, and one for me! I
asked my mom if I could
open my gift.
She answered, "All
right." I screamed
thankfully, "Thanks, a'
lot! ' '
I reached out, opened
my gift. And there it was,
what I always wanted,
Digital Diamond
baseball. "Gee, thanks
mom!" I almost cried.
What a funny Christ-

recieving presensts. But
a long time ago Christ-
mas was born.
He was born when
Caesar Augustus had
decided to tax everyone
under his reign in their
birthplace. Joseph and
Mary went to Bethlehem,
because it was their
birthplace. When they got
to Bethlehem, they were
very tired, and hungry,
but they could find no
where lo stay.
Finally, after sear-
ching every inn around,
they went to the stable of
an inn.
Then Mary gave birth
t6her son, and our savior,
and they called him Jesus
as the angel, Gabreil had
told them to. And having
no where else to place
him, she put him in the
manger on sweet
smelling hay.
At Christmas
remember•that it's Jesus
birthday your
celebrating.

THE FUNNIEST THING
THAT HAPPENED
TO ME AT
CHR ISTMAS
The funniest thing that
happened to me at ,
Christmas was that my.
cat was jumping up and
down on my present,
Then she climbed the
Christmas tree.
After that it was
Christmas Day and we
were at my Aunt and
Uncle's house and the
dogs were barking at
about 7:00 o'clock in the
morning. We got up and
we answered the door. To
our surprise my grand-
parent's were there. They
said, "They wanted
everybody to go to the
presents and open them."
I looked and looked for
a present for me but there
wasn't one. Finally
someone said they put my
presents under the bed.
From then on we had a
great day!
