'Twas a Fun Family Christmas

'Twas the night before Christmas,
when all through the house,
Not a creature was stirring,
not even a mouse;















The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,


In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there.



The children were nestled all snug in the tent, Wearing new pajamas Great-Grandma just sent.

And Mama in her sweater
and Pa in his shirt,






Had fun with the kids, but ate too much dessert ;)

Around the new train set the kids made such a clatter,

It was as if the other gifts would not really matter.

But, into the packages the children tore like a flash.



And at the end of it all,
the littlest one would crashÜ


Watching the children's excitement and awe was a beautiful sight,
Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good night!
