My Favorite Things: Christmas Edition

By TMoM Team Member Suzy Fielders

I’ve always loved musicals – from the days I performed in them myself to watching and studying them in a musicals course in college. They are so fun and, of course, the music is always outstanding. So, it should come as no surprise that I love ‘The Sound of Music’. Julie Andrews is fantastic as always.

Another thing I love is Christmas. Therefore, as a writer I thought it would be a fun challenge to combine those two loves and create My Favorite Things: Christmas Edition. This certainly proved to be fun and challenging, and I think I realized in the long run I should stick to writing blogs, webpages, and novels. Songwriting might not be for me!

Nevertheless, I hope you enjoy this festive variation of a timeless classic!

My Favorite Things: Christmas Edition

Glitter on cards and tinsel on trees

Bright twinkling lights and warm sugar cookies

Beautifully wrapped gifts tied up with strings

These are some of my favorite Christmas things

 

Movies on TV and children on break

Santa’s jolly laugh and yummy fruit cake

Turtle doves that fly so gracefully with their wings

These are some of my favorite Christmas things

 

Kids in holiday dresses with colorful satin sashes

Tearproof mascara that stays on my lashes

All the great feelings holiday cheer brings

These are some of my favorite Christmas things

 

When the baby cries

When the alarm dings

When I’m feeling tired

I simple remember Christmas is here

And then I do feel very inspired

Hopefully you enjoyed this fun little version of My Favorite Things and were singing the tune along in your head!
