Twas the night before Christmas when all through the house, not a creature was stirring….well actually there was more than a mouse stirring this time. The stockings were hung by the chimney with care by the great blogger Nena at http://younfolded.com/2015/12/22/holiday-home-decor/ . In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there. The children were nestled all snug in their beds, well at least Casey from .http://hypervigilant.org/ is hoping her 2 adorable children are sleeping while visions of sugarplums dance in their heads, and Mama in her kerchief, and I in my cap had just laid down…well stop, Mama Jody from http://lifeinbetween.me/ is probably not laying down. She is too busy making yummy treats for Santa, so that he can get a bit more plumper! But I am laying down for a long winter’s nap when out on the lawn there arose such a clatter, I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter! It was Ray the WonderDog from http://meandray.com/ he was barking loud wondering what he had heard! Ameena peeked out her head from the neighboring house, where not a mouse stirred; but Ameena was hard at work with her next heart touching poem for http://randomsbyarandom.wordpress.com/.

Everyone was awakened, and ran to look what was the matter. http://pondertheirrelevant.com/ was pondering the sound and looking as far as she could see.  When what to their wandering http://wallflowerwanderer.com/ eyes should appear but 8 tiny reindeer and a driver so lively and quick that it had to be St.Nick.

And you know how the rest of the poem goes, how with a swoosh down the chimney he came and filled all the stockings that were hung with care. And I watched him as I mused, http://txmyndrover.wordpress.com/  about what was going on. He was so jolly as he laughed with belly that shook like a bowlful of jelly! He must have been doing some reading from http://mirthandmotivation.com/  Then suddenly he put his finger by his nose and with a nod of his head up the chimney he rose. I wish I had my camera close by to take a http://asnappshot.wordpress.com/ for people weren’t going to believe this, they would think it was just a dream, http://breathsndreams.com/.

He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle and away they all flew like a down of a thistle. ( does anyone know what that means, the down of a thistle?) But I heard him exclaim as he drove out of sight , Merry Christmas to all and to all a Good Night! And with those words that have brought http://pricelessjoy.co/ to all, I wish you all priceless joy this Christmas and may you http://makemelodies.wordpress.com/ of your life in the New Year to come!
