My 12 Days of Christmas



            Oh December!  What you mean to me?  Report card rally, kids with coughs and the beginning of the holiday hustle!  Makes it awful hard for a girl like me to get a blog done!   Last week, my students wrote their own version of the 12 Days of Christmas.  I decided to write my own version.  And in light of what happened on Friday, I found even more special to note even the tiniest ways the boys bring a smile upon my face.  
            On the first day of Christmas, my two boys gave to me
            A huge smile all across my face
On the second day of Christmas, my two boys gave to me
Two bear hugs
On the third day of Christmas, my two boys gave to me
Three sloppy kisses
On the fourth day of Christmas, my two boys gave to me
Four runny noses
On the fifth day of Christmas, my two boys gave to me
Five sticky fingers
On the sixth day of Christmas, my two boys gave to me
Six boo-boos a-kissing
On the seventh day of Christmas, my two boys gave to me
Seven loads of laundry
On the eighth day of Christmas, my two boys gave to me
Eight clay balls squishing
On the ninth day of Christmas, my two boys gave to me
Nine giant giggles
On the tenth day of Christmas, my two boys gave to me
Ten questions asking
On the eleventh day of Christmas, my two boys gave to me
Eleven dirty dishes
On the twelfth day of Christmas, my two boys gave to me
Twelve baths a-bubbling
