Ah, Christmas Eve

Darling,

Did you recheck the gift list

Who did we miss?

Slippers for dad

A sweater for mom

Darling,

Did you set the alarm 

To help Santa...

I just heard the children scamper...

Well, now,

A bike for big brother

A doll for little sis,

Who have we missed?

Darling,

What about aunt Emma,

She said no more hankies,

Or plastic flowers in picture frames,

Did you remember to get little brother's

favorite game?

Darling,

Don't forget there are cookies to bake,

The ones with the candy center, and 

Your special carmel cake...

Did you put the angel on top of the tree,

I only have two hands dear, not three.

Love you Darling,

I love you too!

I'll be glad when this day is...

Over!

Merry Christmas, Darling!

Love you...Merry Christmas

Love you too.
