'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house
Not a creature was stirring but me and my mouse.
On the computer I surf, I blog and I type
Waiting for the youngest to make it in for the night.
My grandma was nestled all sung in my bed
While I lay on the couch with a tiny pillow for my head.
The presents were all wrapped.
The food pre-prepaired.
No milk and cookies for St. Nick
We're too old for that affair.
I reminisce over the days when there was such a clatter
And I arose to find the cookies missing from the platter.
When the tree would stay lit all through out the night.
When I would come downstairs and find my new bike.
When we lost all power because of the snow
But cooked breakfast Christmas morning with out the oven or the stove.
Memories are like candy, some can be bitter to eat
But during this season I hope yours are sugary sweet.
Be thankful each day that you're blessed to be alive
And enjoy your holiday with your loved ones by your side.
May your day be filled with laughter, be merry and bright.
Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night.
