I'll just wait here for 19 days, thanks.

So they tell me Santa will be leaving me a loot under the tree at Christmas if I am nice. Well, what I don't really understand is why everything and everyone is getting ready for Christmas and we are Christmas shopping and Christmas baking, but it isn't really Christmas yet? Mom keeps saying, "Wait till Christmas!" and I keep saying "But it is Christmas!". I enjoy my advent calendar and am really patient at only taking one piece of candy out each day and counting the days left, but I don't fully get it just yet. So, I think I will just wait here, stay out of trouble and snack on some candy canes until the Big Guy comes!
