I've always loved my Santa
In his red Santa hat
With his cheerful
demeanour
All hearty and fat
With his belly that
wobbles
Like a bowl full of
jelly
And he loves his
naughty
Little Miss Nelly

Warm memories
Of the holiday season
Moments of joy‚
To be forever
treasured
Prayers of peace
One day to be answered
These are the gifts
I wish for us all
I have happy memories to cherish
At my Grans when I was
a boy
Her heart was so full
of love
She filled the house
with joy
Garlands, Balloons and
bells
Hung from every beam
and rafter
She made it joyful for
us all
The house rang with
her laughter
It was such a joyous
time
I wish I could cross
the years
To once more see her
smile
Just thinking about
her cheers
Hannah Dunbar (Lacey Chabert) is a successful TV Anchor-woman, but after winning a major promotion to the New York bureau, finds herself wondering what her life would have been had she stayed with the love of her life, Ben Matthews (Tyron Leitso), who she left behind in their home town 10 years before.
After talking to a
Salvation Army Santa Claus (Keith MacKechnie) who takes her words as a
Christmas wish he transports her to a version of her life where she and Ben
where married with a family, Caitlin and Hailie (Milli Wilkinson and Audrey
Smallman). Hannah literally becomes a mother overnight and has to navigate the
day-to-day challenges of life in the suburbs with Ben and their daughters with
comical effect, while simultaneously trying to figure out how to get back or if
that’s actually what she wants.
Lacey Chabert is
excellent in the lead in this enjoyable and engaging Christmas treat.
With expectant faces full of smiles
The children sit
around the tree
Waiting to get amongst
the gifts
And wondering “What’s
Santa got for me”
Eagerly the children
sit by the tree
Their expectant
smiling faces all aglow
Waiting to get amongst
the gifts
On the moment when Nan
says “go”
When I think back to those Christmases
I and my brothers and
sisters shared
And all the love that filled the house
When no other time quite compared
I realized
just how lucky we all were
Lucky we had a family that truly cared
Who gave us love and now that I am older
I make sure that love is liberally shared
I've always loved my Santa
In his Red Velvet suit
With his long white
beard
And cheeks all rosy
and cute
His deep throated
laughter
All happy and jolly
And he loves his
naughty
Little Miss Molly
