The alarm clock rang. It was eight o'clock in the morning. It was Christmas Day!! I flew out of the bed and ran towards the Christmas tree. There I saw a lot of presents. I was very excited and started ripping off the wrapping paper which was around the gifts.
Soon after, my family and I went to pick grandma at San Gwann so that she can have Christmas lunch with us. Back home there was a nice scent coming out of our kitchen. My mum had been preparing Christmas lunch. After giving grandma a welcome drink, she gave me the Christmas present she had bought me. What a beautiful red dress my grandma gave me!!! At noon we sat down and we had lunch. We had lasagne and turkey. Dad placed the huge turkey in the middle of the table and started cutting it into portions. Mum added some vegetables, potatoes and a tasty sauce into to and it tasted really good. For desert we had a Christmas pudding and a cup of hot chocolate.
During lunch, we watched the Pope's blessing from the Vatican on the television. I was delighted to hear the Pope sending his greetings to the Maltese people in our own language. After lunch we took a nap. We woke up and had a cup of coffee with some Christmas cake. Then we took grandma to her home and she offered us to have dinner with her.
Time flew by quickly and soon it was time to go to bed. I was tired but very happy. Oh how I wish it could be Christmas every day!!!
