Christmas Morning
Sophie A McDonald

Christmas

My eyes flash open although the room is still dark.
A rush of excitement and nervousness fall over me.
Without hesitation, I hop out of bed and head down the stairs.
Through the darkness I see the outlines of five stockings.

My heart seems to skip a beat as I approach the one labeled �Sophie�.
I take a deep breathe then reach for it.
The large sock is heavy as I lift it from its hook.
I carefully lay it onto the floor like it�s very delicate.

My fingers search for the light switch,
As I flip it light floods through the decorated room.
I then see the plump, filled stocking, lying helplessly on the floor.
Despite myself I smile.

I kneel down on the fuzzy rug and begin to unload the stocking.
Carefully I pull out a few candy canes,
Then some oranges and socks,
I know the good stuff lies at the bottom.

Next I reveal a book from the stocking,
then some clothes,
My hand reaches in once more,
I am surprised to find an empty stocking,
I wonder, was that really all I got?

Without expecting it, disappointment pours over me like a bucket of ice water.
I don�t want to seem snobby, but I was kind of expecting something better.
I then realize that I am tired.
I decide that I should just go back to sleep and forget about it.

My feet walk me over to the light switch.
Just as I�m about to turn the lights out and become sad,
Something catches my eye.
Standing very still, against the white wall,
Lies a beautiful pair of cross-country skies.

I stare at them for a moment,
Then rush over to get a better look.
A note is tied around the tip saying, To Sophie, From Santa.
This makes me smile, Santa and my dad�s handwriting must look a lot alike...

 I am a lot happier now.
For today is Christmas,
The best day of the year.
