But the angel reassured them, saying, “Don’t be afraid. For I have come to bring you good news, the most joyous news the world has ever heard! And it is for everyone everywhere!    Luke 2:10

I love Christmas.  I love so much stuff about it. I love it when our elf Snowflake comes, it brings me so much joy. I love seeing all of the fun things she does each day. Sometimes she brings me and my sis a little surprise. We like to leave her pictures and notes, and before she goes back to the North Pole on Christmas Eve, we love to give her a Christmas present. It brings me so much joy to give Snowflake her gift.

When it gets closer to Christmas me, sis, and dad go out to the woods and we cut down a little tree for our room! It is a little tradition that my dad made for us, me and sis love it! There are other traditions I love, but they can’t happen this year, like going to the Nutcracker ballet or the Christmas craft fairs. But even though with all of the stuff that has happened this year, there is still a lot of stuff to look forward to. I’m looking forward to getting our tree, baking cookies, decorating, and watching Christmas movies.

When Christmas comes that’s when I fill up with joy with all merry stuff, but the most merry thing is spending time with my family!

Prayer: Thank you God for all the joys at Christmas, my family and Snowflake. I pray that everyone feels the joy of Christmas.
