What my favorite things are about Christmas and what I find challenging about it.

Christmas is one my favorite holidays in the year. The things I love about Christmas are spending time with family, giving and receiving presents, and Christmas dinner. My favorite Christmas food is ham, sugar cookies, and corn on the cob. But Christmas can also be a bit of a challenge. The things I find challenging about Christmas are trying to find out what everyone wants and trying to find it in the store. And you also gotta make sure you can afford it. I remember when I was a child, every Christmas Eve we would bake cookies the night before Christmas. Every morning I would wake up before everyone and see presents under the tree. And I had to wait for everyone to wake up so I could open my presents. We would also play Christmas music all day. And we would have Christmas dinner and all of my family members would come over with presents. And we would all sit and eat together. Now that I’m older, things have changed a little bit, but we still have the same traditions and we try to celebrate it as much as we can. Christmas was and still is the best time of the year. I’m looking forward to celebrate it again this year.
