Twas 3 nights afore Christmas.... - 12/22/07 06:13 AM

And all through the house,
Only dad was astirring,
While Mom tried to get the nephew to sleep,
Santa was acoming early,
Since Dad was sailing soon.

So Santa came in as he usually did,
Laid out gifts around the brightly lit tree,
Missed stepping on the cat,
and tiptoed around the dogs,
and then disappeared as quickly,
and as quietly as he had arrived.

Then Dad and Mom finally got to go to bed!!!!

Merry Christmas to all you ETS'ers and a prosperous New Year as well.

Also, my best wishes to all ETS'ers out there (both Scout and non-scout grin ).

As a new member this year, I want to thank you all for the great advice and knowledge that you willingly shared with a stranger and made him fell welcome.

Happy and Safe Holidays to All !!

My apologies to NightHiker and Wildman for the wrong word on the nautical saying. It didn't sound right when I wrote it. I just couldn't remember the right one until late last night. I corrected it.
