Our boys arose
And just as they were taught,
Came to our bed
And thusly said,
"Let's go see what we got!"
Their plea denied,
Their dad replied,
"Not yet, you understand?"
He scurried past,
Then back so fast
With gift for me in hand.
Inside, an Elph
From Canon's shelf,
With charged up battery,
And memory
-4 gig for me!-
For pictures 'round the tree.
Then down the stairs
We went in pairs,
With Dani close behind us
And took our seats
Beside our treats
Where Santa knew to find us.
New GeoTrax
And Lego packs.
Soft Bath and Body lambies.
Puzzles to do,
Fatigues for two,
And Star Wars Lego jammies.
The paper flew,
The laughter grew,
The boys were good and jolly.
But 'cross the room
Impending doom:
Teenager melancholy.
The Office game,
A robe (so lame),
John Lennon book (she flaunted),
iTunes. And yet
forgiven debt
Is all she really wanted.
A GPS
For Darren - YES!
For geocaching jaunts.
A cool fifty
To Academy
To spend howe'er he wants.
And then for me,
New game for Wii:
The Dance Dance Revolution!
To recommit:
Size 12s I'll fit!
This may be the solution.
The day is spent
How fast it went!
The family's soundly sleeping.
Except for me,
Writing faithfully
These memories for keeping.

Great poem to sum up your morning...size 12's? You go girl! The Office game??? No way! I've gotta look into that. =] Merry CHRISTmas.
You are too cute!! Good to see you had a GREAAT Christmas!
I'm glad you guys had such a great Christmas. I'm jealous -- I want the DDR game. I'd also like a CHANCE to be in size 12s again...but that's not in the cards. LOL.
Have a wonderful and prosperous New Year!!!!!
Sounds like you had a wonderful day! What ELPH did you get? I'm looking at the SD770....
Sounds like a great day at the Kocur household. I'll have to add DDR to my game wish list. Great poem.
