What Christmas Is Like For A Seven Year Old
Maia Rogers

I know what Christmas means to most of us today, and everyone celebrates Christmas in different ways. Christmas is usually a child's favorite holiday, and they count down the days until Santa arrives. They open advents made of chocolate that count down the days until the 25th of December. Some kids celebrate Hanukkah or Kwanzaa, but the month of December brings happiness and fun for people of all ages. I decided to interview my little sister, Heaven, on what Christmas means to her and other questions relating to the holiday. Here are her responses.


Q: What is Christmas?

A: "A holiday about people who spend time with each other. It's when people get a lot of presents."

Q: What does Santa look like?

A: "His suit is red, he has a belt, and boots. He's nice and has a white beard."

Q: What's your favorite part of Christmas?

A: "Opening presents with my family and having people over."

Q: What's your favorite Christmas memory?

A: "Having mommy over and opening Tauna's gift. I also liked having fun with everyone"

Q: Do you hope it snows on Christmas?

A: "Yes." (Duh)

Q: Favorite Christmas Movie?

A: "Rudolf the Red Nose Reindeer and Olive the Other Reindeer."

Q: What is your favorite Christmas song?

A: "My Only Christmas Wish by Pentatonix"

Q: What don't you like about Christmas?

A: "Nothing."

Q: What presents did you ask for?

A: "Hatchimals and Shopkins: Girls."

Q: Did you help make anyone's Christmas better this year?

A: "I told my friend Mariah that she doesn't need to be sad on Christmas when she doesn't get what she wants. She normally doesn't."

Q: What would you change about the holiday?

A: "It should be celebrated in January because that is when my birthday is."

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
