The Child
They told me to stay in bed one more hour
I don’t think I can, I don’t have the power
How can they sleep on a day like today?
Christmas has come, what else can I say?
With presents and eggnog, pajamas still on
Getting warm by the fire with a soft Christmas song
My mom and my dad huddled up hand in hand
Both smiling at me like they bought something grand
After the presents, the kisses and hugs
We all watched a movie with hot cocoa mugs
We laughed and we cried, quoting all the best parts
Making memories that always will last in our hearts
Then dad read a story from the Bible at night
He said someone special was born Christmas night
When he tucked me in bed and wrapped me up tight
We smiled at each other as he turned off the light
Here we go! Looks like you're off to a good start.
ReplyDeleteWait, it starts with the 25th day of Christmas?
ReplyDeleteYea... kind of like a count down or something... but it'll make sense why i did it this way in the end [hopefully].
