There is snow everywhere outside and it’s cold. Dale wasn’t asleep; he was watching Julia sleep next to him. She looks so peaceful when she’s asleep. He kissed her on her forehead. She opened her eyes. ‘’Hi baby! ‘’ ‘’I didn’t mean to wake you up! ‘’ ‘’its ok baby! I know that you are watching me sleep since 30 minutes; I can feel it. ‘’ ‘’Merry Christmas baby! ‘’ He kissed her on her soft lips. ‘’Merry Christmas to you! Next year Penelope will be there so we are all going to be here to celebrate Christmas. ‘’ ‘’This is true; I can’t wait to meet her. ‘’ Dale kissed her again and suddenly they heard a ‘boom’ just like when somebody gets down of bed. They also heard Claire run down the hallway. They were both ready to hear some child screams. Claire ran upstairs and jumped on their bed. ‘’Easy on mommy, jump on daddy please! ‘’ ‘’There’s presents under the tree mommy! ‘’ ‘’Really? Who put them there! ‘’ ‘’It’s Santa Claus; he came last night! ‘’ ‘’Do you saw him? ‘’ ‘’No but that’s his job on Christmas Eve. ‘’ ‘’What you do us to do? ‘’ ‘’I want you to come downstairs so I can open mine. ‘’ ‘’Alright, we are coming. ‘’ Julia took a long sleeves shirt and some sleepers. Dale took Clare in his arm and went downstairs. Downstairs, Claire sat in front of the Christmas tree and wait for Julia to arrive. Julia sat down next to her daughter. Claire showed the first gift to Julia so she could tell Claire if it’s for her or for daddy of for mommy. The first one was for Claire. She opened her gift while Julia gave her gift to Dale and Dale gave her his gift. Claire was so happy it was a ballerina doll and she looks a little bit like her. She opened her second one, it was a book of drawing and color crayons; god knows how this kid is artistic. 3 left to go, there was a t-shirt where it’s written ‘I’m a big sister and proud of it! There was also a puzzle of princess and a new blanket with flowers and beautiful colors. Julia will finally be able to get rid of the old one now that she bought her a new one.
