The New Adventures of Matt & Mandy

Matt and Mandy

‘Tis the morning of Christmas.

The house is quite still.

Because all the Coopers—

Except Matt—are ill.

Perhaps it was all

That plum pudding they ate,

But they just want to sleep—

The presents can wait.

The real joy of Christmas,

Matt Cooper has found,

Is having your loved ones

All gathered around.

The best gifts aren’t things,

But the people we love.

They don’t come from a store—

They’re gifts from above.

And now, dearest readers,

Our story must end.

Merry Christmas to all

From the Coopers and Friend.
