My favorte Christmas ornatments on our tree are: ones that have walking wise men's shadows on them, and my first Christmas ornatment. I like the first one because it reminds me of the true meaning of Christmas, Jesus Christ's birth and its really pretty. It is sparkly gold and clear. It is beautiful hanging from the tree and depicts the three wise mens journey so well for being on an ornament. The second ornament is very special to me because it was the ornament my mother bought me when i was just a baby and it was my very first Christmas ever. It has my birth year with a bear sleeping on a moon. It reminds me of my old house that i lived in with my mom when i was little. My mom was single when she raised me and we has such a blast in my old house and i always got to put that ornament on the tree every year. It takes me back to those days and even though we didnt have much, we still had each other and my ornament :]]]

Christmas Gifts

I am not really picky about what i get for Christmas this year. I told my parents clothes, as the same for the past 4-5 years. Thats mostly what i get with a few other nick-nacks every year. What i really wanted was a pet pig but i know thats out of the question. My favorite gifts are what i get in my stockings and from "santa" because they are little things that i can use everyday and are fun. They are usually little gifts for 5 years olders, but i still have just as much fun with them. Me and my sister have a blast!!

Good Ole Santa

i was quite heart broken when i found out about santa. no, my parents did tell me nor did my friends but a book. A small book that wasnt more than 2 inches tall and wide. i remember that day just like it was yesterday. This certain dreadful book was red.... the color of evil. i was reading it right around christmas time because it was when i had learned to read really fast and could comprehend. we only set this book around christmas time because it was supposed to be a christmas time book. i thought i was cool being able to read except when it spilled the beans about santa. It mentioned that he was real but not what i had thought. It was a man that used to help poor kids or something by suprising them with gifts while they were sleeping. Then as the tale went through generations he became fat and wore a red suit and had reigndeer. At the end it said that it was basically all fake. After christmas i told my mom that i read it so that i could still get gifts from Santa. I wanted to cry and so did she because that was the whole excitement about christmas night when it was time to open the presents.
Christmas is still fun even though i know, and i still get gifts from "santa" but it just isnt the same as it was when i was a child.
