Today, I am very happy because my brother and I are going to meet Santa. We are going to visit his grotto. It is very big and beautiful and there are lots of Christmas lights everywhere. I am going to ask for a pretty doll and my brother wants a new bicycle. I'm going to wear my Christmas jumper [US: sweater] and my red and white Christmas hat. My parents are going to take a picture with Santa. And afterwards, we are going to drink some hot chocolate. It's going to be fun!
