Chistmas cactus is green with red flowers
the poinSettias has red flowers and green
leaves and in themiddle it is yellow. At
Chistmas people put fake flowers in their
home to Decorate the Chistmas tree. Other
`decorations we use are tinsel, ieicles, col-
oured lights,..atar.s,-.candles, bells, angels, •--
Santa Claus and his reindeer bringing
presents, and dough decorations. Chistmas
is a. time to be happy, to share, to love each
other, to spread peace, to give warm fuzzies
and gifts, to remember when Jesus was
born in a manger in Bethlehem about two
thousand years ago.
