It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

It's a haiku snowstorm!

Last week we listened to "Night Before Christmas" and illustrated our own version of some of the scenes in the story.

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there.

Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.

When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
But a miniature sleigh, and eight tinny reindeer.

"Now Dasher! now, Dancer! now, Prancer and Vixen!
On, Comet! On, Cupid! on, on Donner and Blitzen!
To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall!
Now dash away! Dash away! Dash away all!"

He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,
And filled all the stockings, then turned with a jerk.
And laying his finger aside of his nose,
And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose!

The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads.

He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.
But I heard him exclaim, ‘ere he drove out of sight,
"Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night!"
