2012 Word Press 100 Word Challenge "Waiting for Christmas"
Her 3rd year, excitement popped in her head like tiny firecrackers. She surrendered to sleep quickly... Santa was coming!
Her 7th year, rockets burst in her brain. She forced her eyelids tightly shut… and slept. Santa demanded it.
By year 10, it was nuclear explosions and her head spinning off to the moon. She feigned sleep. Luckily, Santa was too busy to notice.
‘Twas the night before Christmas.
Her 102nd year, excitement again spun in her head, but this time, as her weary eyes closed, Santa invited her into this sleigh, and off they flew into the eternal starry night.
