She got up to feed and heard something jingle

And when she looked out the window there was Chris Pringle

His reindeer and sleigh were stuck up a tree

While he sat and put a plaster on his knee

He slid down the tree and took out his pick

And jimmied the door with a special kind of trick

He snuck through the door and under the tree

He left a small present for you and for me

Out the door and back up to the sleigh

And as he broke free she did hear him say

"Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good day!"

Have a blessed Christmas, full of love, sharing and kindness. May the truly important things be at the forefront of your mind.

Lots of love from the D's

PS. One small note from the day that made me laugh: Grace fell asleep in the car today on the way back from breakfast (a miracle before Christmas), and when I took her out of the car and put her into bed she woke briefly and said, "Why do I have to sleep?!? Why do I have to rest?!?" and then fell back asleep and had a two hour nap.
