my Mom's Christmas List

We've all been pestering my Mom about things she might want or need that we could give her for Christmas, and this is the e-mail she sent to us all: (Just as a disclaimer, I don't know if this was a forward she adapted, or if this is ALL her own, but either way, it's my Mom.)

Dear Family,

For the twelve days of Christmas, this is what I want……
Twelve days of hubby happy,
Eleven seminary make-ups,
Ten healthy family members,
Nine financial assets to quadruple,
Eight hours of sleep,
Seven smiles from Sarah,
Six days of rest,
Fiiiiiiiiiiiive A’s for Jenny
Four job offers for John,
Three dinners out,
Two long foot rubs
And one baby Rockwell to sleep all night!!!

Merry Christmas!

I love this! I thin it is very cleaver. I of course was trying to sing it and burst out laughing when I got to Rockwell. We will miss you guys for the Christmas events.

I'm torn between wanting to comment on your blog because I care, but knowing that Sheryl will never comment on mine. This is the best I can do while still showing that I care.

Very creative. I didn't see anything about a cruise, though.

Hi Sheryl! SO great to find you on here! I noticed that you commented on my old blog (thanks for that! It is always good to get connected on the blogosphere!) and wanted to give you my new blog address. Haven't written too much yet, but am looking forward to keeping in touch with everyone through it. http://marymferrara.blogspot.com/ Take care and Merry Christmas! PS. Your baby is so handsome! Congrats!

Hey! When are you going to post pictures of your new house? I am dying to see them! I won't be coming home with my parents because they drove a truck down with my stained glass window in it. They won't have room on the way back for us.

Mama Coons said...
