Have you seen this holiday commericial? It's SO cute!!! Seriously, the kid is adorable. It reminds me of every little kid I've ever babysat for.
Most of you have received the BRILLIANT Christmas card that Maria and I have sent out, but for those of you who didn't get the card with our faces plastered on it with its accompanying poem, I will display them here.
Here's the pic:
And here's the brilliant Christmas poem that Maria and I wrote instead of doing work at the library:
A Christmas Poem
by Tara and Maria
Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the floor
Not a person was stirring, not even Dean Elmore.
The empty beer cans were piled in the recycling bin with care,
In hopes that a liquor fund soon would be there.
The roommates were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of graduation danced in their heads.
And Tara grabbed a snack, while Maria hit the light,
And the two settled down to recap the night.
When outside StuVi there arose such a clatter,
We sprang from the couch to see what was the matter.
Away to the window we flew like a flash,
Wondering if another student was trashed.
The streetlight on the sidewalk shed light on the snow,
So we could finally make out a shape down below.
When what to our wondering eyes should appear,
But a miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer.
We rode down the elevator so lively and quick,
For we knew in a moment it must be St. Nick.
But presents for us he had not a one,
And we saw at that time that our Christmas was done.
“No money? Or vodka? Or T pass? Or food?
No parental approval? This ruins our mood!
To the side of the guard booth! To the very 10th floor!
This holiday sucks! What’s Christmas good for?
“We’re just lowly interns, we can’t get a job,
Our futures are unclear,” we said with a sob.
“How are we s’posed to go live on our own?
The economy sucks, and our savings our blown!”
“Dear girls,” said Santa, with a twinkling eye,
“Your talents are many, your successes are nigh.
You’re pretty and charming, men flock to your doors.
You’re witty and clever, the future is yours.
“Now stop all your worry, you’re ahead of the game,
Your internships will help you, and your family the same.
I think you will find a surprise Christmas Day,
Much cash from your parents, that’s all I can say.”
“Thanks Santa!” we said, as he jumped in his sleigh,
And we waved him good bye, all our worries at bay.
Then we looked at each other and yelled with delight,
“Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!”
Love,
Tara
