All I want for Christmas…

The best time of the year to give and receive

 

  Christmas, often called the most wonderful time of the year, is a time for family and celebrating with those you love and care for; it’s a great time to bring you all together. A big part of Christmas involves giving and receiving gifts. Receiving a gift makes people feel special and excited. “My favorite Christmas gift that I’ve received was my cat Niko,” said senior Skylar Hayes.

Getting a Christmas gift can always bring a smile to someone’s face and make them feel excited and appreciated. “My favorite Christmas gift was when I got my heated mattress pad,” senior Jolie Uecker said.

Whenever someone opens up a Christmas gift, the first thing they do is show off to the people around them what they got for everyone to see. They are curious about what it is, and the person who gave it can’t wait for them to open it. 

“My favorite Christmas gift was my cow print blanket,” freshman Alivia McClanahan said.

After people have finished opening all of the gifts, the excitement doesn’t always last, but the good memories will remain. It may be the most wonderful time of the year, indeed.
