‘Twas the week before Christmas and all through our house

Three little grand children were chasing a black puppy with a toy mouse

The children were nestled in their pajamas with much flare

In hopes that a special delivery soon would be there

The children were tucked away snug in there beds

With visions of the ginger bread man ran through their heads

Then Honey was wearing her Christmas kerchief and Charlie with Tabitha in his lap

And Melody and Lalah went down for her nap

Then Oma’s cell phone arose such a chatter

That Opa sat is his his easy chair to see what was the matter

The children came running and the camera’s did flash

The special delivery was here early at last!

Though the sun was shining and we hadn’t any snow

Their mother’s face was shining over a beautiful baby in arms below

What wonder an awe were in their eyes as the peered

At their miniature sister that was now finally here!

With her ten little fingers and ten little toes

Here round little cheeks and her round little nose

With all of the “aahhs” and “oohhs” that came

She blinked her little eyes and they whispered her name

Noelle, Noelle, Noelle Kazuko, Noelle they sang

You are precious and cute! We love you! Their voices rang!

Then out on the porch and down through the hall

The puppies did bark, and they dashed away all!

The excitement and happiness and glee was now high

Soon they would see mama, and daddy, and their baby-bye!

Now up to the hospital the visitors nearly flew

With their arms ready for hugs and baby snuggles too!

Then we heard raindrops and tinkles up on the roof

The coyotes and doggies all cried out woof-woof.

As we counted the presents and bundled up the toys

We thanked our dear Lord for three grand daughters and their brother ALL Boy.

Now we had more blessings from above

A new precious grand daughter to love!
