This holiday season we are blessed even more Our apartment has a new face from ceiling to floor It took many months and we were put through a chore Yet it makes us so happy when we walk through the door

Our health thank you God is stable and strong Work every day gets us what we need to get along We still love to sing along to our favorite songs Looking back on the year can’t complain nothing’s wrong

The family visits were not as many as in years past And when we did visit they ended too fast We were happy to hear we will soon add to the cast And we were so very fortunate no one passed

Our teams from New York struggled to play It was hard to turn on any game any day The tickets are still much more than we’ll pay Let’s hope that next year we can sound a hooray

Looking forward to next year we have so much to cheer Staying healthy and working we have not a fear Keeping close to our loved ones the ones we hold dear As we celebrate the holidays and the coming New Year.
