Christmas
















           Christmas was dependably a mystical time of year for me. The flawlessly designed shopping centers, with toys all around you looked, constantly interested me. Also the houses, with the way their lights would sparkle upon the sparkling snow around evening time, constantly appeared to smooth me. However adorning the Christmas tree and nodding off underneath the warm sparkle of the lights, in wonderment that Santa Claus would soon be there, was the best piece of everything.
