The reason for the season is once more with us, the Christmas season. However not everybody will feel the Xmas celebration, like the following story put it succinctly Xmas is a thing of the hearth.
Hubert: top of the morning to you son
Nathaniel: merry christmas dad
Hubert: its too early to say merry christmas
nathaniel: no dad, is the month of november already
Hubert: i’ll prefer you wait till december to wish me merry christmas
nathaniel: but my teacher at school said we can wish everybody around us merry christmas because its just seven to eight weeks away
hubert: eight weeks is not four weeks, so is still far
nathaniel: no is not
hubert: darling would you please tell your smart little son when we celebrate christmas in this house
alice: actually the feeling of christmas is in the air
hubert: unfortunately i’m not feeling it
alice: come on honey even our arab neighbour know xmas is close
hubert: i bet you they don’t know what christmas is all about
alice: i think they know is christian yultide season
hubert: is that firecracker his holding, you better tell him firecracker is out of bounds in this neighbourhood
alice: his going out already
hubert: tell nathan to meet us outside
alice: nathaniel hurry up don’t be late for school
nathaniel: i’m almost through
alice:what have you been writing, you hardly eat your breakfast
hubert: nope go to the back seat, don’t bother me with your xmas fever
nathaniel: just a composition homework they gave me in school
alice: what’s the topic
nathaniel: the English teacher ask us to write anything about christmas
hubert: oh now i know why we have this early christmas season
alice: let me see the composition, the topic is just another christmas song
hubert: why do you title it just another christmas song
nathan: that is the only present i want for christmas
hubert: great for once i’ll buy you something cheap for christmas
nathan: no dad you will sing the xmas song
hubert: you must be kidding
nathan: that is what i want for crhristmas, you and mum will have to sing
alice: no problem nathan, say hello to your English teacher for me
hubert: and wish him a very early merry christmas
nathan: i’ll surely do that
