'Twas the night before Christmas and in spite of myself
Not a creature was stirring, except for me, Mama Elf.
The stockings were hung, but have yet to be filled --
The kids won't get coal, so they should be pretty thrilled.
There are still presents to wrap ... some hidden away
I need to find them quick, since it's almost Christmas Day!
When all of a sudden, I heard a great roaring!
I breathe a sigh of relief when I realize it's just my husband snoring.
It's been a long, fun day, filled with good food and cheer,
A little hosting and toasting, with friends and family from far and near.
So now as I attempt to finish my list
(I have to admit, I am procrastinating a bit)
I want to take a minute to say just one thing more --
Wishing you peace, love and happiness
shared with those you adore
