William's Christmas "list" for Santa
There have been so many fun things going on lately, I don't know where to begin. How about counting down to Christmas? We've been doing fun things, like watching Rudolf the Red-nosed Reindeer on tv and doing lots of shopping. Mom and I made a paper chain to keep track of how many days until Christmas. It's still a pretty long chain. I also made a Christmas list for Santa. Mom said that since I only asked for one thing, there's a pretty good chance that I'll get it. I want a new hotwheels motorcycle like the one that I lost. I wrote the letter to Santa all by myself. I sounded out all the words. I ran out of room and had to fit letters in where ever they would go. But I know Santa will know what I meant, just like he'll know who it's from. I didn't think I needed to sign my name.
Then St. Nick came to my house. I put my boot outside and while I was getting my pajamas on after my bath, I heard a loud knock on the door and the doorbell rang. When I came downstairs, there was an apple, some M&Ms, orange tic tacs, and a sucker in my boot! St. Nick is a pretty nice guy, but he likes to be secret and doesn't let us see him.
On Sunday I got to go to a birthday party for my friend from preschool. He's turning five and had an Incredible Hulk party at his house. My favorite parts were the cake and icecream, swinging at the pinata, and the beanbag toss. It was pretty fun! And I got a big goody bag of treats to bring home. Right now I have SIX Hulk tatoos on my arms! We should've taken a picture.
This week will be even more fun! Mom's coming to school with me tomorrow to volunteer. We're making gingerbread houses in ECFE on Wednesday. Thursday is our last day of preschool before vacation and we're making gingerbread men. And hopefully it's not too cold on Friday night for the first ever parade of lights in my town! Let's not forget Cookie Day on Saturday! What a lot of fun!
