Christmas Eve

33 Replies
I’m so excited!!  My tummy’s all twirly inside like I ate something off.  I’ll never sleep tonight…. how about you Budd?  I’ll be keeping you company at the window tonight, Tyebe.
I heard something on the roof.  It’s him Budd…it’s him!  Tyebe it’s still light out.  He’s not coming till we’re tucked in our beds. Dang.                                                              
Mom’s going to read Budd, let’s go.                                                             You too, Shoko.                                                                        It’s so comfy here.  I’m getting sleepy.  Hurry up mom and read before I fall asleep.

 

‘Twas The Night Before Christmas

’Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, except for a mouse
The stockings were hung by the chimney with bling
In hopes that more cat treats Santa would bring.
The kitties were snuggled all cozy in beds
With visions of catnip and toys in their heads
Cat mom and cat dad spent all evening wrapping
With gifts under the tree they went to bed happy
When down in the kitchen there arose such a clatter,
They sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.
Right down the staircase they flew like a flash,
Racing into the great room they heard a great crash.
That’s when they found them—each cat with tail swishing
All focused and staring, growling and hissing
Ignoring their parents’ attempts of distraction
The cats kept their eyes on the prize and the action.
And then without warning the cats began chasing
The small furry creature on which they’d been gazing.
More rapid than eagles they flew down the hallway
Ignoring the shouting of mom and dad calling.
Over the table, the chairs and straight down the hall,
Dash away, dash away, dash away all!
All you could hear was thundering feet
As they ran and then leaped to the top of the tree
The presents were scattered from under the tree
As tinsel and baubles all fell underneath.
That’s when they saw him—he peeked his head out,
To locate the cats-a cute little mouse!
Through howling and protests cat mom and cat dad
Grabbed each of the cats, scrambling fast.
Locked in the bedroom they still heard meows
As they went back downstairs wondering what to do now?
The mouse blinked his eyes and tilted his head
Letting them know they had nothing to dread.
With a squeak and a dart he jumped to floor
And he raced towards cat dad who held open the door.
Before he ran off he wiggled his nose,
Gave a quick wink, finally turning to go.
The excitement was over, they turned out the lights,
Merry Catmas to all, and to all a good night!

      You betcha. The Santa Watch will be patrolling tonight. If, I think Santa’s comin’ I’ll wake mom up. We need cookies for him and some nip tea. Mom can always put out treats for us too. We’ll be getting hungry and treats always hit the spot.

    What a great poem! Mom read it out loud to us and we hung on every word! But the Mouse got away!!! Kozmo and Jo Jo were both choked at that! We can’t wait for tomorrow!
    A lovely thing about Christmas is that it’s compulsory, like a thunderstorm and we all go through it together. Let’s buckle up and enjoy the ride.
