We Three Kids

Yippeeee…the kids are home. Home for the Holidays. Being a mom who wears rose colored glasses, I have a vision…a rosy vision of all 5 of us…sitting around the Christmas tree…singing Christmas carols…holding hands. Okay, that’s Kat’s World….enter REAL WORLD….

It’s really more like…kids in and out…can I take the Ford Escape?…you had it last night….refrigerator in and out…late nights turned early mornings…fried egg sandwiches and lasagna at 3 am…dishes in the sink…TV blaring…computer screens glaring…every light blaring.

Back to Kat’s World. Ahhhhhhh…a peaceful night together…snow falling…and the distant voices of Christmas Carolers. Come on fam….let’s sing together “Silent Night.”

I remember when I could get the kids to sing holiday songs…but only if was “Grandma got run over by a Reindeer” or “We Three Kings”...the cigar version. "We Three Kings of Orient are, tried to smoke a rubber cigar, it was loaded, it exploded"....The loaded rubber cigar exploding trick. Kat’s World…shattered even then.

Now the kids are grown and singing their own version of “We Three Kings”……….

"We Three Kids"

We three kids of Kat n Paul Are
Hope to take the Ford Escape car
The tank is empty, Kat is testy
Living with Kat the Czar.

Goodbye Kat's World.
