Twelve Days of Christmas, Mommy Style


On the first day of Christmas Break, my children said to me,
"I'm missing my right bootie."

On the second day of Christmas Break, my children said to me,
"I want two cookies
and I'm missing my right bootie."

On the third day of Christmas Break, my children said to me,
"Mom, let's play checkers,
I want two cookies,
and I'm missing my right bootie."

On the fourth day of Christmas Break, my children said to me,
"Dad, please take us sledding,
Mom, let's play checkers,
I want two cookies,
and I'm missing my right bootie."

On the fifth day of Christmas Break, my children said to me,
"Maddie's piddled on the carpet again!
Dad, please take us sledding,
Mom, let's play checkers,
I want two cookies,
and I'm missing my right bootie."

On the sixth day of Christmas Break, my children said to me,
"We've got choir practice ...
Maddie's piddled on the carpet again!
Dad, please take us sledding,
Mom, let's play checkers,
I want two cookies,
and I'm missing my right bootie."

On the seventh day of Christmas Break, my children said to me,
"Let's go make snow angels,
We've got choir practice ...
Maddie's piddled on the carpet again!
Dad, please take us sledding,
Mom, let's play checkers,
I want two cookies,
and I'm missing my right bootie."

On the eighth day of Christmas Break, my children said to me,
"Can we bake some cookies,
Let's go make snow angels,
We've got choir practice ...
Maddie's piddled on the carpet again!
Dad, please take us sledding,
Mom, let's play checkers,
I want two cookies,
and I'm missing my right bootie."

On the ninth day of Christmas Break, my children said to me,
"We need more batteries,
Can we bake some cookies,
Let's go make snow angels,
We've got choir practice ...
Maddie's piddled on the carpet again!
Dad, please take us sledding,
Mom, let's play checkers,
I want two cookies,
and I'm missing my right bootie."

On the tenth day of Christmas Break, my children said to me,
"Let's surprise Dad for his birthday,
We need more batteries,
Can we bake some cookies,
Let's go make snow angels,
We've got choir practice ...
Maddie's piddled on the carpet again!
Dad, please take us sledding,
Mom, let's play checkers,
I want two cookies,
and I'm missing my right bootie."

On the eleventh day of Christmas Break, my children said to me,
"I can't find my mittens,
Let's surprise Dad for his birthday,
We need more batteries,
Can we bake some cookies,
Let's go make snow angels,
Let's skip choir practice ...
Maddie's piddled on the carpet again!
Dad, please take us sledding,
Mom, let's play checkers,
I want two cookies,
and I'm missing my right bootie."

On the twelfth day of Christmas Break, my children said to me,
"Three days more vacation!
I still can't find my mittens,
Let's surprise Dad for his birthday,
We need more batteries,
Can we bake some cookies,
Let's go make snow angels,
WE HATE choir practice ...
Maddie's piddled on the carpet again!
Dad, please take us sledding,
Mom, let's play checkers,
I want two cookies,
and the dog ate my left bootie."

Merry Christmas to all ... and to all, have a little Egg Nog!
