Christmas is a happy time of year for those boys and girls who are waiting for the big jolly guy to visit. The big question for the month of December is always...have you been a good boy or girl? In my case, I have been a good boy. How do I know this? Well, there are a few reasons. First, I always do my chores at home. I don't get an allowance for doing my chores because my mom says she lets me eat, sleep at home, and does my laundry. So, that's my allowance, in her opinion. My chores are to feed the dog, let the dog out in the morning, clean my room, empty the dishwasher, and clean the counter and sink in my bathroom. I do my chores regularly because if I don't, my mom will remind me a thousand times to do them. I don't want to get her mad, so I do them. I always do a good job with my chores because my mom will just bug me until I do them right.
The second reason I know I've been a good kid this year is I go to CCD class without a fight. This makes my mom and dad happy because they want me to grow up to be a good person. I tell my mom that I don't always understand what is going on in CCD class and that I don't always agree with what the Bible says. My mom tells me it's okay to question things but we need to have an open mind. She says that a lot to me and I don't argue with her.
Since Christmas is right around the corner, I know I've been a good boy and I'm sure Santa will reward me with lots of presents. It better come quick because I don't know how much longer I can behave.
nice post matt. I liked your ending it was funny. You could improve your piece by giving a more detailed description of your chores. But otherwise good post and I hope you get what you want for christmas.
