  贝基六岁了。圣诞节前夕，她帮她妈妈一起挂起了标着“爸爸”两个字的长筒袜。贝基问她妈妈：“圣诞老人来之前，爸爸能赶回家吗？”妈妈说：“我希望他能。”接着，贝基想让妈妈给圣诞老人准备一些饼干。妈妈说那是个很棒的主意。然后，贝基就上床睡觉去了。 

  第二天一大早，贝基就醒了。她跑去叫醒爸爸妈妈，对他们说：“我们能去看看圣诞老人是不是来过了吗，爸爸？可以吗，妈妈？”这时，贝基的父母不仅醒了，而且还和贝基一样兴奋。 

  来到楼下，贝基和爸爸妈妈看到圣诞树下有那么多给他们的礼物，他们高兴极了。贝基注意到，那些送给圣诞老人的甜饼干都不见了，一件礼物旁边有一张纸条，上面写着，“把这些送给你的爸爸。在我到达这里时，他已经到家上床睡觉了。”贝基抱着爸爸的腿说：“谢谢你，爸爸。我知道你会及时赶回来的。”
