My familys version of Twas the night before Christmas...

Twas the week before Christmas, and Mama was stressed
Her twins would not sleep
Her house was a mess

Between Daddy and his Football
And the girls and their toy’s
Had Mama over looking all of Christmas’s Joy’s

So she took a deep breath
And Pulled an “all-nighterâ€Â
Got the house all picked up
Cause Mama’s a fighter!

She swept and She vacuumed
She folded and mopped
She washed every dish and wanted to drop

But Mama kept going
She cleaned some more
Then Mama passed out on the living room floor

She slept for 5 minutes
Until she awoke to the noise
Of this years greatest Christmas Joy’s
Kyle and Cole Her little Twin Boy’s
And you heard her exclaim as she woke up that night…
“Daddy Wake up, unless you want to fight!ÀÂ

Based on a true story. (Mama never cleaned her house)

Your ticker is killing me!I loved your poem, very creative!

 

LOVE IT!! I was actually thinking of my own version of the 12 Days of Christmas the other day!

I didn't finish but here goes...

12 loads of laundry!
11 dirty bottles!
10 stinky diapers!

(this is the part I didn't finish!)

2 babies crying!
1 tired mommmmmmmy!

Well you get the idea! We should make a cd!

 

Yours is much more creative, by the way!

9 strangers gawking
8 oddball comments
7 changes of clothing
6 teeth a-popping
5 minutes of silence!!!
4 jars of peas
3 (can't think of anything for 3!)

 

I would add 3 gray hairs- but that'd be wishful thinking
Maybe "3 new gray hairs"!!!

That's just great. It's basketball around here for us... That seems to never be over.

 

Love it Jenny! I can't think of anything for 3 either!
