Walkin' In a Wiltbank Wonderland
(to the tune of Winter Wonderland)
Children scream, are you listenin'
In the wash, socks are missin'
A crazy array
Of faults on display
Walkin' in a Wiltbank Wonderland
Gone away is our big space
What we need is a new place
Only 5 months to go
The time's gone by slow
Walkin' in a Wiltbank Wonderland
Christmas time is full of all the usual
Threats that Santa won't be comin' down
'Cause Alex hitting is not that unusual
And Santa's noticed Claire's signature frown
Oh yeah, there's been some good stuff
Life hasn't been all that rough
Buster's brought us such joy
He's such a good boy
Walkin' in a Wiltbank Wonderland
When kids obey, ain't it thrillin'
Toys put away, when they're willin'
When they frolic & play, without a mean word to say
Then we're Walkin' in a Wiltbank Wonderland
In the wash, socks are missin'
A crazy array
Of faults on display
Walkin' in a Wiltbank Wonderland
Gone away is our big space
What we need is a new place
Only 5 months to go
The time's gone by slow
Walkin' in a Wiltbank Wonderland
Christmas time is full of all the usual
Threats that Santa won't be comin' down
'Cause Alex hitting is not that unusual
And Santa's noticed Claire's signature frown
Oh yeah, there's been some good stuff
Life hasn't been all that rough
Buster's brought us such joy
He's such a good boy
Walkin' in a Wiltbank Wonderland
When kids obey, ain't it thrillin'
Toys put away, when they're willin'
When they frolic & play, without a mean word to say
Then we're Walkin' in a Wiltbank Wonderland
Merry Christmas!!
Despite my tantrum and tirades, we have been very blessed this year. Especially because of all the many wonderful and supportive friends and family we have in our lives. We love you all!

Hey Kelly! Your mom had me get on her blog (my first time to read one!) and then I could click on the link to yours. Loved the Wiltbank Wonderland poem. Why don't you move to Houston when Cory finished school. Aunt Maxine
