“Ready for Christmas, Itsy?” Itsy looked up from his list to see his favorite waitress at ALANA’S PLACE. “Almost!” he answered. Christmas was the most wonderful time of the year for Itsy and Bitsy. Even though he had finished making his list, he still had some things to take care of before his Christmas party.
