Once she done it on her brother Andrew, he also freaked out and he didnt talk to her for a week and a half.

Wiiy was she so worried? When she returned she saw a car pull in the drive. It was grandma!!! Mom theyre here, she yelled. Thats good because she is takingyou shopping!" she called back. Wow that takes a load off Christmas morning there were hardly any presents under the tree! ! ! Her brother and sisters put on a play. It was about baby Jesus. She got six presents, (not including Santas) but she still had lots of fun playing in the snow, breaking in new toys and eating lots of food. Her favorite was the play, but most of all being with her family. After every thingwas over she w ent to bed and prayed she was thankful for everything that she had gotten. Then when she climbed into her cool soft bed, after she closed her eyes and got snug, she knew this Christmas was the dearest and best. The End. Rhet Carter Ferron Elementary up.
