Happy Birthday to The Mom today!
Yes, that’s right…get out your party hats and noise makers…The Mom is celebrating her birthday today, December 27th! In honor of her birth, I will NOT embarrass her with a nudity/singing/dancing/eating picture!

In honor of her 33rd birthday*, I composed a little sonnet to commemorate the Christmas vacation we shared together this year. I think she’ll agree that when it comes to vacations, we don’t mess around. Without further ado, I present T’was the Day After Christmas!

T’was the Day After Christmas
“’Tis the day after Christmas, and all thru the apartment
Are items of extremely high caloric content.
I’ve sat on my bum, I’ve not moved a stitch,
My body will never be seen at Abercrombie and Fitch.
I don’t care to work, I don’t care to move
And on the couch, my bum has created a new groove.
The tree is still lit, the ornaments so merry
And I’m willing to be that my legs are quite hairy.
I sleep in ‘til 10, I eat danishes for lunch,
And why not? No need to get my panties in a bunch.
It’s Christmas vacation, a time to relax,
To veg on the sofa, and charge credit cards to the max.
So, for a few days more, my posts will be brief,
And then with the new year, this blog turns over a new leaf.
Enjoy being lazy, kick back, and drink “nog,”
Merry Christmas to all, from Aunt Bethany’s blog!
And now, good readers, I’d like to present you with the Digital Nativity, a YouTube video I was directed to this holiday season. It basically prompts the question: how would the story of Christmas unfold in modern culture? No matter what your religion or culture, I believe this little clip can bring a smile to anyone’s face. It was not created to offend, and the message towards the end really says it all. Have a look, and pass it on, as I have done for you!
Continued holiday blessings, from my blog to yours! Do yourself a favor and follow my lead: start the diet next week!
