The poinsettia sits on the table for all to see and now it's time to bake the cookies, cook the plum pudding and fruitcake,bake the mince pie and I can't forget - pumpkin pie - with ALOT of whipped cream on top.
Santa will soon be riding his sleigh with glad tidings to all the good boys and girls with sparkle in his eyes and bringing magic to all the little ones.
It's no small wonder that the Noel sign is shining and the white elephant is wrapped with red ribbon.
Blitzen is tied to the sled and the gingerbread men are outside snowball throwing.
Is it your birthday? Well then,"As you blow out the candles, one will stay to glow. That's the sunshine of your smile where 'ere you go!" Happy Day!

Amy R (Galesburg, IL)
Happy Birthday! It's also one of my grandaughter's 8th birthday today.
Blitzen brought me some gingerbread and a magic poinsettia. I now need only 9 more words! Guess it's time to set the alarm and be sure I'm online at 7 a.m. to play. I won't mind if someone else wins the Bingo, but I'll sure be bummed out if there are a bunch of Bingos on one day and I lose out because I'm not the first one!
Oh happy Day.. when I did this from my phone earlier, I missed a couple of words!
Glad tidings, noel, the poinsettia is a true wonder!
Happy Birthday!!
Managed to cross a total of 13 words off my list :)
HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY...HOPE YOU HAD A SPECIAL DAY.
