When she sees what we have done.
Cooking’s really not so hard
In fact it’s a lot of fun!

Daddy’s watching basketball,
We asked, “Can we bake a cake?”
He told us, “Sure, whatever,
Just be quiet, for goodness sake!”

Tomorrow is Mother’s birthday,
This will be a big surprise.
We can hardly wait to see
The surprise in Mother’s eyes.

Don’t ever leave your grandson
Alone at your computer,
Next time you try to use it,
You might require a tutor!

That she has forgot,
How old she’s become
But it is a lot.

So I told Grandma
“That’s easy to fix,
Check your underwear,
Mine says 4 to 6.”

She had been a good friend,
She was very loving
And loyal to the end.

Our little four-year-old
Sadly told me, as he cried,
“I couldn’t find your chapstick
And that’s why kitty died.

“Her bottom was all chapped
And that’s why she got sick.
It made her feel better
When I used your chapstick!”

And bless Daddy too.
Bless all of the animals
That live in the zoo.

God bless Bobby Joe,
Bless my new friend Ruth.
And please tell the Tooth Fairy
About my loose tooth.
