If I could have one Christmas wish it would be for my sponsored child in Africa to get better. The first reason that I would like this wish is because she wants to be with her friends. The second reason for this wish is so she can still have food and water. The third reason is so she can still have a peaceful and happy life! That is why I want Windfree to get better for my Christmas Wish.

If I could have one Christmas wish it would be for my grandma to get better after her operation. The first reason that I would like this wish is because my grandma is in a lot of pain. The second reason for this wish is she has a hard time going up and down stairs. The last reason for this wish is some times she falls and hurts herself. That is why I chose my grandma for my Christmas wish.

If I could have one Christmas wish it would be for all the people in the hospital to be well again. The first reason that I would like this wish is because I don’t like to see people in pain. The second reason for this wish is because children can’t always celebrate the holidays when they are sick. The last reason is so they can go home to be with their families. That is why I chose the hospital for my Christmas wish.

If I could have one Christmas wish it would be for my family to have an exclusive Christmas this year, especially my great-grandpa up in heaven. The first reason that I would like this wish is that I miss my great-grandpa (although I will never see him again). The second reason for this wish is that I want my family to be together (although my great-grandpa won’t be there). The last reason for this wish is I love my family. This is why I chose my great-grandpa (who died when I was three) and the rest of my family for my Christmas wish.

If I could have one wish for Christmas it would be for my uncle to have no pain. The first reason that I would like this wish is because I don’t like to see him in pain. The second reason for this wish is he liked to go to work before he had the pain. The last reason is to have a great life for my uncle. That is why I chose my uncle for my Christmas wish.

If I could have one wish for Christmas it would be for my grandma to be able remember things.  Last year she fell and broke her arm. That was fixed but ever since she’s had trouble remembering. When we go to visit her she forgets things like when it’s her birthday. I think it would be nice if she could have at least one Christmas being able to remember things.

If I could have one wish for Christmas it would be for my aunt because she lives in a place where 45 per cent of the children are hungry. My aunt lives in Guatamala City and when me and my sisters went there, there were tons of shacks at the bottom of volcanoes where people lived. There were kids beside the road trying to sell things for money to buy food. We stayed at a lake house and there were kids fishing, washing their clothes and making their food all day without going to school. I think a great Christmas wish would be for my aunt to help feed all those children.

If I could have one Christmas wish it would be for my grandpa because he’s got false teeth and he is in pain. The first reason that I would like this wish is because he’s been in pain for one month. The second reason for this wish is that he could not eat hard food. The last reason is that it is hard to speak properly. That is why I hope my grandpa get’s better for my Christmas wish.

If I could have one wish for Christmas, it would be for my wonderful Grandma by the ocean. She has breast cancer, and I really, really wish she would get better. She’s had most of the treatments already, but it would be nice if she could get better completely for Christmas. The first reason I would like this wish is because she is hurting so much and she has been sad about it. The second reason I would like this wish is because she is the most fun Grandma ever! The last reason is that I love her as my Grandma. That is why I chose my grandma for my Christmas wish.

Ainsley Koebel

If I could have one Christmas wish it would be to have world peace. The first reason that I would like this wish is because so many people are dead because of so many wars. The second reason for  this wish is so everybody can be happy without fighting. The last reason is so all the soldiers can be reunited with their families. Peace is important to Canada and me so that why I chose world peace.

Eric MacMahon

If I could have one Christmas wish it would be for my Grampie to get better from his Parkinson’s disease. The first reason that I would like this wish is because he falls a lot and gets hurt. The second reason for this wish is that he could walk around and do stuff if he wasn’t sick. The third reason for this wish is that if he was better he could come and visit me. So this is why my Christmas wish is for my Grampie to get better.

Duncan McLeod

If I could have one Christmas wish it would be for my sister to have eternal youth. I think it would be a good wish because she likes to play like a kid and she has fun. She also likes to run around with her friends but she doesn’t anymore because she is older. She will be happy with eternal youth so this is why it’s my Christmas wish.

Michael

If I could have one Christmas wish it would be for my grandma to walk better because she had a hip replacement. The first reason that I would like this wish is because she really likes to go places but it is really difficult for her. The second reason for this wish is because her hip really hurts. The last reason is because I don’t want her to be in pain. That is why I chose my grandma for my Christmas wish.

If I could have one Christmas wish it would be for Lourdes to not have a bad back, for her cold to be gone and for her to have the best Christmas ever! Lourdes is a very nice person and she deserves to be healthy. She already has a very good man whose name is Chris Small. She hurt her back when she was carrying a basket of clothes  up the stairs and bent  it. Now she can’t bend her back to pick up things. She deserves this wish because she is great!

Echo Small

If I could have one wish for Christmas it would be for my sister Lara to get into college and get a good education. The reason for this wish is that I want her to be successful. The second reason I’d like to make this wish is because I want her to get a job and make a lot of money to buy a home, food and water. The third reason is because I want her to lead a good life. This is why my wish is so important to me for my sister.
