MERRY CHRISTMAS! Today I woke up just at after dawn. I'm writing this while I wait for Mom and Dad to wake up. I haven't gone downstairs yet or seen the tree, I hope I got some presents! Yesterday was a nice day. Dad took me out bowling but the alley was closed. So we went to Umstead Park and walked about looking at nice stones by the riverside. I'm a-quiver with exitement!
