My Best Christmas Present Ever
My baby sister came
home Christmas Eve
My best Christmas present ever was my
guinea pig. Her name was Smore. She ran
around in her cage and sometimes I let
her outside so she could run outdoors.
She ate dandelions. It was funny. My
mom and dad gave her to me. I got her
because I was good. I fed her and also I
played with her. I named her Smore
because she had a, light brown graham
colour, a chocolate colour, and a white for
marshmellow colour. She was the sweet-
est ever. She never bit me, she loved to
crawl over me, and she made little noises.
It was fun to have her around, but we sold
her.

My best Christmas present ever was
Julie, my goldfish. That was last year.
One year I got a little jeep that I liked and
could ride in. Another year I gol a cotton
candy machine. But my goldfish was the
most important to me.
I was nine years old when I got Julie. I
was very excited but I knew I could not
jump up and down or the fish would get
scared.
I asked for a small animal because I
didn't want a big animal. Big animals can
jump up like Duke my dog. Mom would
never let me have a big animal in her
house. Little pets like a cat or a little dog
can be picked up and are usually cuddly. I
know I can't cuddle my fish but a fish is
small.
Julie has passed on. I got other goldfish
and they all ate each other. I miss her.

My favourite Christmas present is my
sister Rachle. Rachle plays with me, cries,
poops and pulls my hair. I help feed
Rachle and hug her a lot. She came home
on Christmas eve of 2004. Rachle is my
sister and my best friend. She has brown
hair and brown eyes. Rachle is very cute
and has soft skin. Rachle is my best
Christmas present ever.

SPSMy best Christmas present ever was
an electric guitar. It plays rook music. I
got my electric guitar from Santa Claus. It
was wrapped up in a big box. I did not
know what it was. I was so excited when
I opened the box. It was a guitar. I strum
the strings on my guitar and it makes a
sound. It is very fun to play with. I just
need lessons, which 1 am getting this year.
I can hardly wait. That's why my guitar
was my best Christmas present ever.

My best Christmas present was a GT
snowracer. My mom and dad gave it to
me. I ride it down gravel pits and slopes. I
have a big stunt kite that I got from my
godfather. I go on my G.T. and fly my
kite and it pulls me through the snow.
That's why the G.T. is my best Christmas
present ever.

My best Christmas present ever was my
keyboard because I got it from my aunt
Joann and uncle Joe. I first started to play
after I got the keyboard. I was just a
beginner and now I play duets with my
step grandma Elaine, and we make a good
couple. Especially, with my grandpa Jim
playing with either his banjo or violin.
My favourite songs are jazzy type. The
names of the songs are Just Struttin'
Along and Swing Town. And the key-
board was the best Christmas present
ever.

It was two years ago and ny sister and
I were sitting in my room playing games
of tick-tac-toe. It was five in the morning
on Christmas Day and all was quiet. It
was so quiet that my sister thought that
the house itself was sleeping. My sister
and I were both wondering what was
downstairs under the tree. We got up and
moved downstairs.
When we got downstairs, my sister and
I started to get tired so we had to go all
the way back upstairs without waking my
mom and dad. We got back peacefully.
When we woke up it was 8 a.m., time to
go downstairs. I opened my first present
and it was my Playstation 2. Now if I can
only figure out how to set it up.

The Christmas present I got was a pre-
sent that never keeps me inside on snow
days! If you can't guess what it is, I will
tell you. It was a ski-doo! From Grandpa
and Grandma.
It's not very big and bright yellow. I bet
mom and dad can see me when I'm out-
side from far away! days when my sister
and I are bored. we invite my neighbours
over. They have a mini Z too. We like to
make tracks and then follow them. 1 still
drive the mini Z and hope that maybe
some day my brother will be generous
and give me his ski-doo. Then I can drive
on the trails.
