Mommy, Mommy!!! It’s almost Christmas!!! Tell us da night befur story. Purrlease???
The night before Christmas story? Well, okay sweety. Girls come sit down. (Dezi jumps to the arm of the chair and cuddles next to mommy. Raena jumps into mommys lap and lays down).
T’was the night before Christmas, when all through the house. Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
Hmmpht They don’t have Raena in their house. Dat’s not da right story, mommy.
It’s not? Well darlin’, why don’t you tell us the night before Christmas story?
(Dezi clears her throat and tells the tail tale.)
T’was the night before Christmas, and all through the house
Raena was stirring and running about
Our stockings were hung on the hutch way up high
So we couldn’t reach them in the middle of the night.
Our new ‘lectric blanky was calling our names,
Come snuggle, Dezi, Raena, mommy needs you both the same.
We jumped on the bed, for our friends we then prayed,
Including strays and ferals, homes for them, we bade.
When all of a sudden Raena jumped with kittenish joy,
Zoomies through the house, Was she looking for a toy?
Up the tree, down the tree, she chortled some more
Back to bed, mommy hollered, which she promptly ignored.
Me couldn’t take it, me had to go see
Just what had she found that was causing such glee?
Down the steps and through the house me zoomed
Me ran in and out of every room.
Where is Raena? Where did she go?
Me chortled and chirped, but she mewed not a word.
Mommy called to me in that sweet loving sleepy voice,
Dezi, come back to bed, and stop making so much noise.
What? It wasn’t me that was clamoring about,
That was Raena…Before, not now.
Now she’s snuggled by mommy asleep,
Back to bed me goes, our nightly secrets to keep.
Morning will come soon enough my love,
Mommy said quietly, as she pulled me close for a hug.
Goodnight dear friends, sweet dreams to you all;
Back under the blanky me now must crawl.
So? What’d ya’ think mommy?
Well sweety, I think it’s purrfect. I think you’re purrfect. And Raena, I think you’re purrfect too. Why don’t you girls wrap this up. We have lots to do before tomorrow.
I’s wanna wish everypawdy a Merry Christmas.
