The 12 Days of a Romantic Christmas by Michael Webb
http://www.TheRomantic.com/

The “real” 12 days of Christmas actually begins on Christmas Day

and ends on January 6, called Epiphany or Three Kings Day

(to symbolize when the kings arrived to honor the Christ child).

*********

With all the hustle and bustle of the holidays the children, friends
and relatives often get all the attention and the spouses are left
out in the cold.  Celebrate this Christmas with 12 days of romance.

On the first day of Christmas…  Buy your mate one box of their
favorite cereal and lace it with lots of    prizes.    Throw in some
golf tees, Hershey kisses, toy cars or whatever would bring out the
child in them.

On the second day of Christmas…  Take out your two
engraved toasting glasses from the china cabinet and use them.
Reminisce the day you first sipped from them.  If you never had any
engrave your own by buying some stencils and etching paste at a
craft store.

On the third day of Christmas…  Have three meals
together.  You could go all out with breakfast in bed, a picnic
lunch and a candlelit dinner.  Better yet, spend less time preparing
the meal and more time sharing it together.

On the fourth day of Christmas…  Put the pedal to the metal and four on the floor. Take a peaceful drive for the day.  Go to county, sight see in the
city or cruise around looking at Christmas lights.

On the fifth day of Christmas…  Fax or deliver a photocopy of your five fingers (plus the rest of your hand) to your love at work.  Tell them you
can   t wait to be together to hold the real thing.

On the six day of Christmas…  Give her a half dozen of her favorite flower –
one at a time.  Leave one on the pillow, one on her car seat, one at
her office, etc.

On the seventh day of Christmas…  Count your
lucky stars by gazing into the 7th heaven.  If the night is
overcast, arrange glow-in-the-dark ones on the bedroom ceiling.

On the eighth day of Christmas…  Buy an 8 pack of crayons and
together design and color a personalized coloring book of happy
memories you have shared.

On the ninth day of Christmas…  Cats arent the only ones with 9 lives.

Take out your scrapbooks, photo albums or home movies and spend

the day soaking up the sweet memories of your past lives together

(adolescent, teenager, dating, engaged, married, parent) and then began

planning for the future ones (empty nest, grandparent, retirement).

On the tenth day of Christmas…  Massage your sweetheart’s aching

shoulders for ten minutes.  Throw in a back scratch, a foot massage and a hair brushing if you are feeling extra generous.

On the eleventh day of Christmas…  Bake him eleven of his favorite cookies

(since most recipes make one dozen, these will be bigger than usual – he
wont complain).  Stick a wooden skewer through the side of each
cookie and then wrap the cookie in a colored plastic wrap.  Place
them in a box or vase as you would a dozen roses.

On the twelfth day of Christmas…  Present your sweetheart with a custom made twelve month calendar for the new year.  Use personal photographs or
your own drawings to make it unique.  Highlight special days for the
new year.
