GODERICH SIGNAL -STAR, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 29, 1986—PAGE 7B Da lived in a family of seven and didn't have the most eventful Christmas My Great -Grandfather went to their bush and cut down their Christmas -tree. They brought it home and made decorations like string berries and string popcorn. They cut SUlrale UL::""i ':trurn, them arms,±nei pictures and other things so that the whole house smelled like a forest. The Grand- parents curled crape paper and from the corners of the ceiling they brought it to the center of dining and living room ceilings. Then a huge bell was put in the center. Every Christmas morning Great - Grandfather read the Christmas story and after that the family knelt down in prayer thanking God for all the blessings during that year. Before the guests came the Children could only open their stockings. The stockings were generously filled with fruits and nuts if they were good a little can- dy, When the guests come everybody open- ed the rest of the presents. Christmas din- ner was the goose that had been fattened up all, year. The vegetables were from the garden. For desert they would have Christmas pudding, fancy cookies and Christmas cake. After supper the whole family would sing Christmas carols and play games. And thats how my Grand- parents spent Christmas on their farm in Port Albert area sixty years ago.

On Christmas eve my mom and her sister would go to bed at 6:00. While they were sleeping a few of their friends from the church helped wrap and put presents under the tree. At midnight they would be aroused to open add play with their presents until about 3:00 to 3:30. After that they'd ,go to bed until they woke up. In the morning there was always something that had to be done. Grandma was fixing dinner, Grandpa was visiting and they'd have to set the table. Afterwards they'd have the turkey and the other stuff for Christmas dinner. Dad lived in a family of seven kids and didn't have the most eventful Christmas. They would set their tree up about a week before Chirstmas. On Christmas day they'd have to do the chores and eat breakfast before they could open their presents. After they had opened their presents and played with them they went to their grandma's and had dinner with all their aunts, uncles and cousins.

When I write a Christmas letter I feel greedy because almost whatever you see you want. Last year 1 wanted a lot of things. On Christmas I realised I was a little greedy. My mom and dad say I'm not greedy I'm just giving Santa a list to choose from. The, thing I want the most is a puppy or a kitten. If thats too big then just to go on a long trip with my family. I think Christmas is fun. I get to see my whole fami- ly. I've always wanted a puppy or a kitten. I've had a puppy before but it needed a friend, so we gave it away. We were hardly home to take care of it. My family and I have been on lots of trips but I want to go for a long time. I hope I have a good Christmas. ,Nicole Sherwood St. Mary's School Grade 4 MY CHRISTMAS WISH My Christmas wish is a gettoblaster for Christmas. I would turn it up loud.
