The Twelve Constellations of Christmas!

December 26, 2018

Okay, yes, in addition to being light-hearted, last week’s blog was a tiny cop-out. But the reason is now revealed: I was working on this week’s blog!

I think you’ll catch on to the idea pretty quickly. Because we all live who knows where, under who knows what sky, I couldn’t go with “winter constellations” per se. Instead, I chose my favorites. Enjoy!

On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me . . .

A phoenix in a pear tree!

On the second day of Christmas, my true love gave to me . . .

Two stellar doves!

On the third day of Christmas, my true love gave to me . . .

Three exotic birds!

On the fourth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me . . .

Four calling cranes!

On the fifth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me . . .

Five golden crowns!

On the sixth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me . . .

Six geese a-PSYCH!

On the seventh day of Christmas, my true love gave to me . . .

Seven sea monsters!

On the eighth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me . . .

Eight water-bearers!

On the ninth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me . . .

Nine heroes leapin’!

On the tenth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me . . .

Ten maidens dancin’!

On the eleventh day of Christmas, my true love gave to me . . .

Eleven harps a-harpin’!

And finally . . .

On the twelfth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me . . .

Twelve bears a-roarin’!
