'Twas the morning of Christmas 5am in London-town, while the flat-mate was sleeping, one diva crept down. The coffee was brewing; the toaster went pop; our Diva sat waiting poised at her lap-top. The package of presents had arrived just before, and diva had piled them onto the floor.
She waited and braced for a marvelous sight, when the screen started flashing and gave her a fright!
She ruffled her hair and straighted her hat, ensuring everything looked just that. And then with the click of her little mouse, all of her family was there, in her house!
'Hi Oma, hi Opa, hi mother and dad, hello brother's girlfriend and hello to you Tad!' Everyone cheered when our heroine smiled and raised up their glasses to toast their dear child!
So its a twist on a classic, but this year's Christmas was as great as it could be. I woke up at 4:30am to celebrate with the family over Skype as they opened presents and enjoyed their Christmas wine. It was almost like being there. We stayed online for the better part of two hours, and laughed like crazy. The only thing that would have made it more perfect was some hugs!
Merry Christmas everyone, and Happy New Year!
PS: My brother is not named Tad, but it had to rhyme with dad, so Tad it is!
