Mom’s Twelve Days Of Christmas
Lyrics thoughtfully revised by Mindi K. Flowers
On the first day of Christmas, my children gave to me
A chance to be a referee.
On the second day of Christmas, my children gave to me
Two hugs with love
And another chance to be a referee.
On the third day of Christmas, my children gave to me
Three accidents
Two hugs with love
And another chance to be a referee.
On the fourth day of Christmas, my children gave to me
Four joyous moments
Three accidents
Two hugs with love
And another chance to be a referee.
On the fifth day of Christmas, my children gave to me
Five handmade things
Four joyous moments
Three accidents
Two hugs with love
And another chance to be a referee.
On the sixth day of Christmas, my children gave to me
Six temper tantrums
Five handmade things
Four joyous moments
Three accidents
Two hugs with love
And another chance to be a referee.
On the seventh day of Christmas, my children gave to me
Seven Christmas Concerts
Six temper tantrums
Five handmade things
Four joyous moments
Three accidents
Two hugs with love
And another chance to be a referee.
On the eighth day of Christmas, my children gave to me
Eight hairs-a-greyin’
Seven Christmas Concerts
Six temper tantrums
Five handmade things
Four joyous moments
Three accidents
Two hugs with love
And another chance to be a referee.
On the ninth day of Christmas, my children gave to me
Nine ornaments crashing
Eight hairs-a-greyin’
Seven Christmas Concerts
Six temper tantrums
Five handmade things
Four joyous moments
Three accidents
Two hugs with love
And another chance to be a referee.
On the tenth day of Christmas, my children gave to me
Ten songs-a-singin’

Two hugs with love
And another chance to be a referee.
On the twelfth day of Christmas, my children gave to me
Twelve smiles heartwarming
Eleven presents peeking
Ten songs-a-singin’
Nine ornaments crashing
Eight hairs-a-greyin’
Seven Christmas Concerts
Six temper tantrums
Five handmade things
Four joyous moments
Three accidents
Two hugs with love
And another chance to be a referee.
