I write a lot about traditions, some big and some small
So, it’s only fitting I write something about my favorite one of all
Christmas Eve is a night I love with all my heart
So much so, I don’t even know where to start
When you arrive you are greeted with Kenny G music
The saxophone sounds are quite therapeutic
The Coronas and wine are ready to drink
We cheers to family and the glasses go clink, clink
The good China on the table is out
The lobsters are looked at one last time before they begin to shout
We eat like Kings and Queens or Royalty
We joke and we laugh joyfully
We are graced this year with the newest member of our crew
Alice Marie is lucky she has Meghan, Kiley and Maya to look up to
These girls will grow up to be the best of friends
For now they are the reasons their family overspends
For Mom and Dad, what can we say
They are the true heroes of the day
The cook, they clean, they fill your glass
They love their oldest son, who is such a bad ass
After dinner the gifts are handed out
The best gifts are given and bragged about
The Stanton Family has lots to thankful for
But the best is we are together, who could ask for more
So, raise your glass and toast to another great year
As we sit and wait for Santa and his eight reindeer
Cheers!
