A Christmas Challenge

 I hope everyone had a great weekend! Mine was very busy, but fun.

Several years ago for school my brothers and I had a writing assignment where we had 10 minutes to write a paragraph about Christmas. Well, that probably sounds really easy, but we were only allowed to use words with one syllable. It was a little tricky since you can't use words like Christmas, Merry, December, Holiday, and all of those typical Christmas words.

Well, here is the story from all those years ago (with a slight wording change) that I came up with in 10 minutes. I hope you enjoy it. : ) 

In days past in a small town a small Boy was born. His mom put Him in a warm cloth and set Him in a place to sleep. He was born in a barn that night and His name is Christ. This is why we have that day where we put up a tree and get and give gifts. We don't have this fun day to just get gifts, but to look back on that day when Christ was born. 

This is a fun challenge to do! If you decide to do it I’d love to read your story.
