On Christmas morning I woke up and realized, or remembered rather, that I now ha a ferret. Bandit was sitting right in front of me, and I could feel her tiny little paws on my belly through the blankets. She apparently had found one of my necklaces and had put it over her neck. She ha also found one of my bracelets and was wearing it like a tiara. I say tiara and not headband, because her head was so small that my bracket kinda hung off her head in a funny way. I guess that bandit is already living up to her name! Aways, I got up, I picked up Bandit, scratched my cat Tiger on the head, and went downstairs to see all the presents under the Christmas tree. When I got downstairs I saw that mum was already down there, making hot water for coco and tea.
“Hi mum, merry Christmas!” I said
“Good morning sweetie! Do you wanna go wake up your dad? He said that ‘he would only wake up when you came and told him to.’ His exact words.”
“Ok I’ll go up right now!” I exclaimed
With that, I ran upstairs to my parents room so that I could jump on my dad.
“Dad! Dad! Dad! Merry Christmas! I wanna open presents!” I exclaimed
(My friends would probably say that this moment is a reflection and portrayal of my only child syndrome. Everything has to be about me all the time, because I’m the only kid in the house)
“Alrighty, I’m coming down, gimme a second! And get the dogs and this ferret off the bed!”
“Okay” I said, Realizing that both the dogs, along with bandit, had climbed on the bed too. I went back downstairs and waited for my dad while Ace came with me, and Bandit hopped on my shoulder.I went slowly so that Bandit could stay on my shoulder, and When I got downstairs, mum had put 2 mugs of hot coco on the counter, complete with marshmallows.
“Dad says he’s coming down soon” I told mum
When dad came downstairs, I pulled all of the surprises out of y stocking and opened some presents. I had gotten gifts for both of my parents along with one for each of the pets. I even gave Bandit some treats. I got my mom some leprechaun gold, my dad an Irish leprechaun quidditch team hat and a wizard chess set. While I was at hogwarts I also knit mum a few things, a scarf and a hat, plus I made her some art and I thought that her and dad could share the chess set.
We drank coco and played games. Later, my grandparents on mum’s side, Granda Arthur, and Granny Marsha were going to come over, along with some of dad’s American family, for Christmas dinner.
I played more quidditch with my cousins and all played with bandit. It turned out to be a pretty good Christmas!
