twas the night before christmas

Thanks for watching


here is the poem:

twas three weeks before christmas
when all round our abobe

seung lan was trying
to get on the road

the bags were packed and placed on the floor
filled with baby clothes and blankets, ready to head out the door

the dog and the mom were watching tv
anxiously awaiting for the arrival of one donnie

with nothing of the tube, or on dvd
seung lan had started playing the playstation 3

when all of a sudden, the dog started barking
he ran to the window to see donnie parking

indy was by himself all of a sudden
he jumped on the couch and began to feel sullen

he put his head down and started to sigh
but he knew they'd return soon, back to his side

but back to the car, with donnie trying to drive
after some time, the hospital they would arrive

out of the car and into the room so fast
we were counting how long the contractions would last

along the way we called out doula to come in
in childbirth matters, we don't know where to begin

after getting an epidural seung lan slept
but the doctors ran in after a few hours rest

i offered them my help, but it all was for naught
the laughed and said "you're a dentist, not a real doc"

"now push, now push, through each contraction you can"
the doctors told her, and seung lan clenched her hand

and after a while but what should appear
a mass of dark hair, two eyes, and some ears

and as i watched, i thought how much it was hurting
when all of a sudden the room started turning

i'm not sure how long i blacked out that time
but i awoke to the sound of a small baby crying

as i arose from the floor and looked at my wife
she was holding an infant with big brown eyes

our gaze met each others and i reached out my palm
her fingers curled my pinkie, and i looked at her mom

our baby was perfect, a gift from above
an amazing christmas present, filled with such love

soon we were to the recovery room
but that horror story is best told through a cartoon

back home we've returned and indy is great
he follows his sister all times of the day

we're getting accustomed to 2 AM feedings
it doesn't phase indy, he continues his sleeping

to crystal, our parents, charlie, and matthew
bella and suk and even uncle emobu

to all those we know, family and furry friends
from zoey and us, a message we'd like to extend

good tidings to you this month of december
twenty eleven was quite a year to remember

holiday wishes to everyone back in the states
merry christmas, happy new year, and God bless the USA
