The 12 Days of Christmas

I was inspired the other day while cleaning the boys' room (read, "wasting a perfectly good afternoon"). I found some fascinating things, and this being day 1 of the 12 days of Christmas, I thought I'd celebrate with this little ditty. Feel free to sing along:

On the 12th day of Christmas my children gave to me
12 skinless crayons
11 Lego towers
10 new gray hairs
9 poopy diapers
8 finger foods


7 mateless stockings
6 rounds of Veggie Tales
5 talking toys


4 shredded books
3 day old sandwich
2 mystery owies

and a semi permanent masterpiece drawn on the TV

Thanks for getting the song stuck in my head AND reminding me that I need to do some cleaning before I also find 9 poopy diapers.

I just noticed I made the quotables, I'd be terribly embarrassed, but since Mark Twain is in the list maybe I should feel honored
