A Different Christmas

Hello people.
Today something amazing happened. I'm gonna tell you guys the whole story.:D
I love festivals. All and any. Christmas is around the corner and who doesnt love a festival with santa claus, parties, christmas trees and presents!! :D
But this year, christmas for me was different. :) So, here's the story:
I woke up today morning earlier than usual. With having nothing to do and not wanting to study i was just loitering around the house. So my mum asked me, 'hey, why don't you come to school with me?' Btw, my mum's a playschool teacher, hence the school. And unwillingly, i agreed. When we reached my mom's school, we first decorated all the classes for the kids. Then we organized some activites for them, then the kids came. All of them looked sooo adorable. :) Dressed like santa, raindears, princesses and angels. I wanted to take pictures of all of them. The moment they came in, they started playing and dancing to the tune of 'jingle bells'. It was such a cute sight. At that very moment, my mum came to me worried and said, 'the guy who's supposed to be santa isnt coming. What are we going to do? All these kids are dying to meet santa!' So I said, 'ok, so why don't you become santa?' and my mom said 'no, i need to take care of the kids. Why don't you become santa?' I looked at her for one minute and started laughing. In my head, i was like, she cant be serious! How can i be santa? i'm short and i'm not even fat. Its a stupid idea.! After arguing and disagreeing alot with mum, i finally reluctantly said yes to be santa. As i went to dress up as the new replacement of santa, i felt embarressed and humiliated. 'It would be so embarrassing if any of my friends found out. Anyhow, when i finished dressing up, i looked more like a monster than santa. The make up guy didnt let me do any changes, but as soon as i entered the class, all the kids started crying!!! None of them even wanted to be anywhere next to me. I quickly rushed out of the class and told my mum i couldn't do this. She asked me to try again. And so, i did. However, i let down my hair, rubbed out the fake wrinkles, took off the glasses and also didnt wear my beard. then when i went into the class, the kids kind of started approving of me. In no time, i was dancing with all the kids, singing, jumping and laughing. In the end, i was supposed to give each kid a gift and they were supposed to kiss me as soon as they walk under the mistletoe and click a picture with me. As all the kids left, i realised that i was one of their first santas! They might have that picture of them giving me a kiss in front of the xmas tree. I realised the joy they felt when i gave them their presents from my bag of presents. I felt sooo warm in my heart. I felt so happy to have even made a little part of their day.

This christmas, will always be a special one. The christmas where i became Santa. Such a happy feeling.
That's it for now. Merry christmas, Spread the joy. Be someone's Santa Claus. All my love =)
