Christmas in japan

I spent a special Christmas with my family in Japan last year. Before I married, I never cared about Christmas because Christmas was not special for me. I just felt the street became beautiful and there were some special foods in restaurants. But since I married I was spending Christmas with my family every year. My children would ask me gift from one month before Christmas, so I needed to think about what kinds of gifts they wanted. In the last Christmas, I brought them to Toys-R-Us to let them to choose their gifts. When I finished shopping my children asked me, “When Santa Claus came to our house?” I told them the Santa Claus will come to our house in the Christmas Eve and they trusted and they said, “we will be waiting for Santa’s come/coming.” Then I didn’t know how to explain the Santa’s that in fact no Santas in the world.

Christmas in Japan

I spent a special Christmas with my family in Japan last year/month/Christmas. Before I was married, I never cared about Christmas because it was not special for me. I just saw/noticed the streets becoming beautiful and there were some special dishes/plates/menus in restaurants. But since I got married I spend Christmas with my family every year. My children would ask me for gifts one month before Christmas, so I needed to think about what kinds of gifts they wanted. Last Christmas, I brought them to Toys-R-Us to let them choose their gifts. When we finished shopping my children asked me, “When will Santa Claus come to our house?” I told them “Santa Claus will come to our house on Christmas Eve,” and they trusted me.  They said, “we will be waiting for Santa to come”. Then I didn’t know how to explain to them that in fact there is no Santa in the world.
