What I was expecting to be a dull and depressing day Very sharply fell short of being anywhere near that way The sounds of little feet pattering in my direction For awhile, I captured the childrens attention
Most the guys sleeping during the football game After getting bored with conversations lame Including the newest Hunter on his Uncle Nicks chest And Aaron his son, taking a well deserved rest
Everywhere I went, young Seth at my side Wouldnt let me out his sight, no matter what I tried Becoming a mountain for him to climb And choosing me as his partner in crime
Eventually, I would have to face questions about Amy And why she wasnt there to help devour the turkey For what many said was the first time in awhile I explained the whole deal, with a smile
As things grew quieter, I took a moment to look back Seeing yet again, how my life has taken a totally new track Remembering also that a more special date isnt far away As I silently rejoiced the fact that nearly a year now shed stayed
I also had to wonder where the time had gone As it truly doesnt feel as if it has been that long After my rest, it became time to put of the tree But we didnt have enough lights to cover its 9 feet
Sitting in the living room, halfway put together I quietly wished for the greatest Christmas ever As all the guests left, after an endless amount of time I finally got a chance to sign online
Wondering what I would do while I waited I decided to write, before my memory faded Of the things that came and went my way On this, my first happy turkey day
