Twas the night before
Christmas,
And throughout the Stapley
House,
Each boy had finally found,
His beloved she spouse.
Shane and Angeleen got
started early,
You know how I know?
Because to count all their
kids,
You must use your fingers and
toes.
The rest of the boys took
their ol’merry time,
Parents didn’t seem to
understand,
Were there no girls to find?
Cuz he got married at twenty
five, my mistake twenty five plus three.
He sure took his time tying
the knot with his gal,
A few years before her mish
and a few after her mission pals.
Finally came along Jace and we
won’t mention his age,
But boy was that fun – How
many times was he engaged? J
Some say he robbed the
cradle,
Set the example for Press,
But were are glad to have his
gal,
She looks pretty in any
dress.
Just like the Stapley song
there was one more,
“Then along came Preston number four”
And “Now we have more joy
then we ever knew before”
And yes “We’re counting our
blessings, And sharing our love,
Enjoying what’s been given
from our father above”
There is much to say about a
family that is close,
Of eight wonderful children
of our parents to boast.
May we each remember why we
love one another,
I truly can say I love each
sister and brother.
