When Hannah met Santa a couple of weeks ago, instead of getting a candy cane from him she got a small paperback coloring book. I would not have been happy about that when I was a kid, but Hannah was thrilled to get a book. I love the text of the book, so I wanted to share it:
"You Mean the World To Me"
You are the sparkle in the tree lights
the shimmer in the snow
the jingle bells
the yummy smells
you make the season glow!
You are the fig in figgy pudding
the spice in pumpkin pie
the sugar sweet
in every treat
the twinkle in my eye!
You are the reindeer on the rooftop
the candy in the cane
you are Santa's pack
the klickity-klack
of wheels on a toy train!
You are like a favorite blanket
a cuddly teddy bear
the holly jolly
favorite dolly
sitting in a chair.
You are the sprinkles on the cookies
the 'mmm' in butter creams
the stocking stuffed
the pillow fluffed
the magic in my dreams.
Your smile is like a moonbeam
shining on a snowy night
you are full of wiggles
and silly giggles
you are like a candle bright!
You are cuter than a little house
made out of gingerbread
trimmed with gumdrops
and lollipops
all colored green and red.
You are sweeter than any present
ever placed beneath a tree
you may be small
but you beat them all
you mean the world to me!
Super cute! It makes me tear up about half of the time that I read it. Hannah certainly does mean the world to Scott and me!!!

I love it. It's a perfect poem with a precious message. Why do you post in the middle of the night? You need your sleep mama.
I love it and basically want it to read to Isaac. I might of teared up reading the little poem myself. Sometimes I'm pretty teary like that...whatev.
So sweet! It was fun seeing you guys this weekend. Hopefully you are all well rested and ready for the big celebration today!
