5 Days of Christmas

Twas the week before Christmas and all through the island,

not a munchkin was caroling, Why? Cause it’s Thailand.

Not a candy stuffed stocking or sweet cookie platter

With all of your help Teacha fix this sad matter

Away to the workshop she flew like a flash

After 5 hours of wrapping, she had quite a stash.

Set off the next morning, presents in tow

You sent so much cheer, the sleigh wouldn’t go

When what to her wondering eyes did appear

But a grumpy-ish elf who will work for beer

Teacha arrived, called the munchkins by name

This week with your help, Gods’ love overcame

The struggles of language and money and loss

Reminding us why Jesus died on the cross

To show us that love is worth any plight

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night

I am originally from Missouri and currently teach English, wrangle Munchkin's, and give hugs in Southeast Asia. I planned on doing the typical backpacker thing for a year or so and moving on.......but 6 years and hundreds of munchkins later, the ride's been anything but "typical". We're still here and still making munchkins' days one hug and high five at a time. Send us a note, some love, or a donation if you're able. Love from Munchkinland, Teacha Katie.
