Reindeer Games

While we were visiting Theo's Aunt Erin during our trip to Philadelphia, I noticed that her house was decorated with many plush reindeer. I thought they would be cute in a photo with Theo.

Then, she told me that she has some reindeer antlers from Build-A-Bear that our nephew Sam's Zebra wore for Halloween, which she thought would fit Theo.

Okay, that settled it: photo shoot time! So here is an early Christmas gift for Theo's loyal readers: Theodore with Santa's Eight Tiny Reindeer.

You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen
Comet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen
But do you recall the most cuddly reindeer of all?

Theo the baby reindeer
Has a very tiny nose
And when he smiles so sweetly
You could say his whole face glows.

All of the other reindeer
Love to laugh and call his name,
And when he goes to visit,
They play every reindeer game!

Then, one foggy Christmas eve,
Santa came to say:
"Theo, with your smile so bright,
Won't you guide my sleigh tonight?"

Oh, how the reindeer loved this,
And each shouted out with glee:
"Theo, the baby reindeer--
I'm so glad you play with me!
