Christopher Abe's Christmas
I had been waiting and waiting, and it was finally
Christmas Eve!
I played with my little Nativity set while Mommy read me
a Christmas story.

Then I hung my stocking by the fireplace.

Next it was time to set out cookies and milk. Two kinds of cookies, just in case Santa didn't like one of the kinds.

Mommy tucked Boo-boo and me into bed, but we were both much too excited to sleep.

In the morning, we raced out to the living room, and guess what! The cookies and milk were gone!

Santa had come in the night and filled up my stocking.

I ate the candy cane right away. What a great breakfast.

Then I could finally rip into all the presents.

It was the best Christmas I ever had.
