Christmas Poem

My husband is very talented in many ways and this is one of them.  He wrote this over the course of an hour or two on Christmas Eve and I didn't even have to spell check it!  Hope you enjoy!

Twas the night before Christmas

As I write this letter

My family thought I couldn't get this done, 

But I'll show them better.

It still isn't Christmas yet

just a few hours to go,

I'm writing next to the fire

As snow falls out the window.

The kids are excited

As Santa's drawing near,

It's going to be a chore

Getting them to bed I fear.

The family's getting bigger

With a new puppy named Koko,

She's tearing up the backyard toys

And driving mom loco.

Kristy is running the daycare at home,

She loves spending time with the little ones

Joey's still working at SUU

Having fun and bringing in the funds (actually I think Kristy still makes more than me).

Kelley started kindergarten this year,

She really likes school.

Tyler spending the day playing trains and cars

And thinks he's super cool.

Well again we leave you our poem

On this most holy of nights.

Hope to see you soon,

We'll leave on the lights.

But if not, we hope this letter

Finds you and your kin

Happy, healthy, harmonious

And don't forget to grin.

For on this night the reindeer fly

And the fat man rides again.

Love, 

Joey, Kristy, Kelley and Tyler
