Sarah gave Jennifer everything on her list, an Easy-Bake oven, a rocking horse she rode like a bucking bronco, a doll that drank water and soiled small diapers. Looking into the eyes of her daughter slowly approaching the tree on Christmas morning, Sarah could see eternity.

A Christmas Story,
Standing by the fireplace and looking out the window, watching the fresh falling snow.
While Grandmother looks on as the kids hang ornaments on the tree.
Uncle Evans seems to have drunk too much eggnog. You know what I mean.
Let’s gather around to carve the turkey.

Christmas swung like a pendulum. Decorations appeared in neighbors’ yards and in stores. Our excitement got us into trouble. “Christmas is canceled,” my father would yell angrily. Most years, it came anyway. The lights on the Christmas tree are never so beautiful as when they are blurred by tears.
Elena Nix says
The Birds’ Christmas Tree
A small pine tree was sacrificed and draped in garlands of vibrant cranberries and snowy popcorn. Pinecones smeared with peanut butter and rolled in birdseed were tied to its branches. Peanuts hung by threads like tinsel. Flocks of ornaments fluttered in to grace the tree.

Christmas Wish
Cheering begin to crescendo, incandescent light’s flickering, excitement engulfed the surroundings. What an amazing Christmas eve. However, deep inside, I’m yearning for you! Once a joyous night, now melancholy for you’re gone. Yet staring beneath the blue moon, I know we’ll be together again celebrating this spectacular occasion. Soon.

On Thanksgiving, Chloe told Uncle Jim the government didn’t hide a tracking device in her vaccine.
He said, “I know. It’s Bill Gates.”
Chloe said, “But they already track us through cell phones.”
Windows shattered and light flooded the room.
Jim said, “my spaceship’s waiting. We will conquer your species.”
