Twas two weeks before Christmas and all thru our home, every creature was busy, even Jem writing this poem. Our stockings weren't hung, as no chimney have we. We live in the desert. What're you thinkin, silly? No children were nestled all snug in their bed. They were both at practice, doing as their coaches said. And Robb with his running shoes and softball attire, was trying to keep up old age, a feat that is dire.
Looking back on the year, we've had such a great time. I will try and describe it in the form of a rhyme:
I will start with our "baby". He is getting too old. He turned 12 this year, so the Priesthood he does hold. He played baseball, basketball and XBOX a ton. He's a master babysitter. All the kids find him fun! He attended scout camp, grew 6 inches and went to Disneyland for school. His niece and his nephew sure think that he's cool.
Jasmine turned 16, and on dates she does go. She was crowned homecoming princess, but had to attend with no beau. She wasn't yet of age, and her parents are mean. Boy, isn't it rough, being a teen? Volleyball and basketball, her time it does kill. She also attended a church service camp, and much joy she did feel.
My hunk of a husband, boy, what can I say? He has something going on almost every day. Three jobs he does hold and in church a new call. He's the new Young Mens president. Those boys are going to have a ball! With all his activities, he still knows how to have fun. He makes time to play softball, golf and even run.
Primary, choir and stake pianist are what I'm about. I sure am thankful that those piano lessons
I stuck out. I still love my job, our new house and our un-winter-like weather. I see my grand-babies whenever I want and there's just nothing better. I keep super busy following my crew. And to be honest and truthful, there's nothing else I'd rather do.
Our lives are chaotic, not a moment to spare. But we like it that way. Dull and boring. . .we wouldn't dare! Our holiday wish is that you're loving life too. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, from the Pulver crew!!
