But, just in case Santa Claus does come by, I'm going to leave some milk and cookies for him. (I helped myself to a couple cookies also.) :)
Then, I went to bed, but it wasn't before long when I was woken up by a loud WHOMP sound.
"Phew, this is harder than it looks," someone mumbled from the living room.
"Santa?" I asked, tiptoeing from the bedroom. "Is it really you?"
"Hi there, Ajdin... uh, I mean... HO HO HO! MERRY CHRISTMAS!" Santa said.
"How did you know my name?" I asked.
"I'm Santa. I know everyone's name."
"Wow! You're really real!" I was beary excited now.
"And why not? I'm just as real as you are," he said.
"I must get my Uncle Tibbs to come meet you. I'll be right back -- "
"Uh, I don't think that's a good idea. He's sleeping, isn't he? You wouldn't want to wake him up, right?"
"Well, no, I guess not..."
"Here, I have some gifts for you. I heard you were a good little bear this year. Here's a new jar of honey, some smoked salmon, and some gummy bears. Don't eat it all at once, Ajdin."
"Thank you beary much, Santa." I gave him a hug before he turned to leave.
"And thank you for the milk and cookies," he said, finishing them off in a couple of bites. Then, as quickly as he had arrived, he went up the chimney and was gone.
WOW! I am so excited right now! I have to tell Uncle Tibbs in the morning what happened. Too bad he was not awake to see this!
