"Oh Mama"

I am very indecisive.
I never know what to buy.
So I procrastinate going to the mall
And the time before Christmas flies by.

Every year I buy for different people,
But some remain the same.
Some people are easy to buy for,
But my mother's gift is like a hard game.

Problem number one is she is still a little kid.
So her gifts must always be perfect.
Problem number two is I am always out done
By my sister, who always gets a better object.

Problem number three is her birthday,
Which happens to be on Christmas Eve.
So now I have to pay for two days
And two gifts to pull out from up my sleeve.

This year she wanted dangly earrings,

But I could not find any that I thought were nice.
So I looked into every single store
For something that would suffice.

I walked into the Disney store just for fun
And there it was sitting on the wall.
It was as if it glowed and called my name
Coming from the Cinderella doll.

It is her favorite Disney princess.
How could I possibly forget that.
I'll buy Prince Charming for her birthday,
But Cinderella is where it's at.

Finally the perfect gift for mom
And this year really wasn't that hard.
All the problems were solved!
Wait...Oh no! I still need a card!
