Tommy woke up on the day before Christmas feeling great. He was really exited because he knew that tomorrow was Christmas. Tommy was eight years old. He liked Bionicles. He was a really silly boy.

"I'm hungry," Tommy said. So he got out of bed and walked to the kitchen where mom was preparing breakfast.

As soon as Tommy walked into the kitchen, mom said, "There's my little baby." She gave him a hug. "Sit down in eat," mom told Tommy. Tommy say down on a chair and began to serve himself the food that mom had just prepared. It was eggs and bagels like always.

Tommy ate up all his food and left the table. "Don't forget to wash your hands!" mom exclaimed as Tommy left the room.

The day went by very quickly, and almost as if nothing had happened, Tommy was in bed, thinking of Christmas. "I can't wait till Christmas," Tommy thought. Then he fell asleep. As soon as he fell asleep, Tommy woke up again. It was 1:00 in the morning. He needed to use the bathroom. He quietly sneeked out of bed and headed toward the bathroom. He went inside and closed the door without making any noise. After he had finished using the bathroom, he started walking to his bedroom. Suddenly, he heard a crash coming from the livivng room! He went to see what it was. When ge entered the livivng room he didn't see anything strange. The stockings were empty and there were no presents under the tree. He was about to leave when he heard another strange noise. But this time it was coming from behind the couch. He slowly walked over to the couch. he walked slowly to the couch. His heart was beating rapidly. "It could be a robber," Tommy thought. he got closer. then he changed his mind and ran over to the furniture behind the Christmas tree. Then a huge black thing came slowly over to the tree. It was caring something that Tommy couldn't identify. Tommy had totally forgotten that it was Christmas Eve. Tommy thought, "It's a robber! He's coming to steel our Christmas tree! I have to do something!"  As soon as the "robber" got close enough that tommy could barely touch him, he jumped out of his hiding place and punched the "robber" with all his might! "Ouch!" exclaimed the robber. He sounded like an old man. When Tommy heard the man say this, he finally relized that this "robber" he had punched was Santa! "Oh! It's you, Santa!" Tommy cried.  "I am so sorry that I punched you. I thought you were a robber." "Oh, that's ok," said Santa with a groan. "It's just that I don't know how i will get through the chimney, now that my back is hurt." "Oh, you can just use our main door," Tommy said kindly. "Thanks! That's very nice of you," Santa said. So, Santa left leaving Tommy and his family's presents behind.

And that Christmas was a Christmas Tommy never forgot.
