It's beginning to look a lot like ...
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Everywhere you go
There's a pile of broken lights
Wrinkled bows and snowflake tights
We never are quite ready for the snow.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Soon the lists will show
Lots of toys and expensive stuff
But it's never really enough
They must want me to spend all of our dough.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
My gas tank is running low
I even tried to shop online
But that took even more time
Can't we just donate to charity and let it go?
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Everywhere you look
The cat chewed on the holiday wrap
The kids used the cardboard roll as a bat
And now those paper balls fill my kitchen nook.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Time to to hug your mate
Just buy the children some simple things
Don't jump up every time the phone rings
Because soon enough it'll be 2008.
Happy holidays to all
Play more, stress less.

Ha ha I could sing along to that one! It was perfect rhyme in perfect time!
I said it before and I'll say it again: Laura you could make a living with this writing thing.

Also, re: your previous post about drawing the same picture ... Hua Hua does the same thing. All over the house are pictures of our family. (the girls have longer hair, daddy's is shorter. The girls have lovely eyelashes, but alas, poor daddy has none. We are standing sometimes in different order, but always together, always smiling and happy looking out at the world. She draws this identical picture nearly every day, sometimes more than once a day. Hmmmm.)
take care!
