It was two days before Christmas, and David wanted to give a card to everyone in his class. He opened the bag and looked ________. "What are you looking for? his mom asked. "Ms. Ross gave us a ________ of everyone in the class, "said David. "I can't find mine. If I don t have my list, I won't know what names to put on the cards."

"Take ________ out and we'll look together," suggested Mom. They shook out all his books and ________ all the pockets in his bag, but no Christmas list. "Now I can't give out cards at school, "David said sadly.

"Don't ________ so easily, said Mom. She took a piece of paper and asked him how many children are in his class. "Seventeen," answered David "I'll never ________ them all."

"Wait, "said Mom, numbering the paper one to seventeen." Now, who do you often play with? ""Brian, Todd and John.  "She wrote down their ________.  "And who sits in the first row in your classroom？”“Hmm…Angie, Jill and Brad." David tried to remember what his ________ looked like and who sat where, " And Rebecca, Travis and Erin in the second row." David's mom wrote as fast as she could.

Now, they had ________ names. Who had he missed? David thought hard.

"Why don't you write out the ________ that you have names for?" said Mom. "Maybe you'll think of the ________ name while you're writing."

David picked out a card. He ________ it and then put it into the envelope. He did this sixteen times. "________ is missing?" One more time he thought about who sat where in his classroom.

________ he said, "I know! I know who is missing from the list!"

"who？"  said Mom.

"We forgot ________!" David said. "I'm going to wish me a Merry Christmas, too.
