It's Winter Vacation
It’s winter vacation.
It’s time that you take a couple of weeks for
a holiday break.
I hope that your house is abounding with joy.
I hope that you get a new game or new toy.
I hope you have plenty of wonderful food,
and family around you to brighten the mood.
I hope that you’re happy and full of good cheer.
Enjoy your vacation. I’ll see you next year!
