The Night Before Christmas

 John Carlos Checketts (2019)

Saint Nick was very old. He lived to see the day of his family members and friends. He rode on a reindeer.

He had 8 other reindeers. He called them all these different names, at first he couldn’t remember all of their names, but Rudolf was one of them. Rudolph lead the way, he was the first one.                                      

But then Santa remembered some names, they were Prancer, Vixen, Common, Cupid, and Blixen but most of all he remembered Rudolf, because he had a shiny nose and could lead Santa’s sleigh tonight.

His nose was so bright that he could see everything down below from the houses.

All the other reindeers were pulling on Santa’s sleigh bells because they needed Santa’s help.

The elves had help put presents in Santa’s sleigh they had taken them out of the workshop.

Rudolph needed some friends, so he had all the other reindeer as his friends

It was a very happy time for other families.

This Saint Nick, who was really John, came to town every year for once a month.

But this Santa Claus was even better than the last one because he had a bag full of toys.

The children hung their stockings by the chimney with care.  Santa came and filled up their stockings by the fireplace. He gave each child a nice toy to play with.

Each child said, “Thank you” to Santa Claus that night.

Then Santa tucked them into bed. The children slept in their beds nice and safe and warm.

They were dreaming about sugarplums dancing in their heads.

They had a Christmas dinner feast the next day. They were so grateful for their family, like their mom and dad, and their grandma and grandpa and Aunts and Uncles, and all their relatives.   

Around their Christmas tree were a lot of presents for the Children.        

 It was a great year for Santa that year. He left all the houses and was so grateful he was so loving and dear.                                           

 To the end of this story is that they had candles in their windows so that they could see.

They were so blessed and grateful to have their loving Dad and family there always at Christmas time.

 There were some songs at the end like, Joy to the World and Silent night and We 3 kings of Orient Are…., oh Come All Ye Faithful, What Child is this?, and Frosty the Snowman.

 This story is for you with Love, from Santa Claus who is John, who is Caring for other people.
