Not-So Silent Night The family turned the corner, and waited for the house to come into view. The car slowed as the house approached. The house, though it always seemed like it couldn’t fit in another horribly cheesy Christmas decoration, yet every year something new was added. Mom rolled down the window, the cold night air and tinny Christmas music drifting into the heated car. This time, Silent Night played, all the lights flashing comically to the tune. Curious eyes searched the yard and found the newest addition to the mess. Today, the normally white candy canes cycled between the colors of the rainbow. The car drove away, laughter fading as it left. Claire Nelson Age 12
