The Mouse Before Christmas It was the night before Christmas and all thru the house the only creature stirring was...a mouse. The gifts were all placed under the tree. I was sleeping real good til the mouse awakened me. I got out of bed quick as a wink. I turned on the light and the mouse stood up and blinked. He was caught in the act opening a gift. Somehow that mouse thought that gift was his. I proceeded to chase that mouse all around the house for a minute or two. Finally I caught him and stuck him in my shoe. He seemed quite tame as he peeked out every now and than wondering why I was ruining this Christmas night for him. It was than that I noticed the present he had nibbled upon was not one I placed under the tree. I picked it up and noticed it definately was not a gift meant for me. I read the tag and to my surprise it read To: Mouse from: Santa. I could barely believe my eyes. I opened it up and to this mouse's delight it was a large block of tender cheese perfectly sliced. So mouse got his cheese and we ate every bite. Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night. Jameslee@December17,2000 Hope one and all have a very Merry Christmas.
