Greetings to friends both far and near! We pray you had a blessed year. We want to share some of what we did, Just a little bit about each kid We’ll start with the new teen, our firstborn, Bug: He played basketball for a little while, Helped fire victims, volunteered on Pikes Peak, Caught enough fish to feed us for a week! Played baseball again - though he struggled at bat, Loves to read books now, imagine that! Started a business selling photo note cards, Helped out at church raking the seniors’ yards. Moving on to Butterfly, our eleven year old: She helped with the homeless when they came in from the cold, Won a poetry contest, then recited on stage! This year, the Titanic was her current rage Stayed overnight at the museum with her Dad, At her tea parties, a great time was had, Joined the youth group and girls’ Bible study, Serves lunch to the seniors, now she’s everyone’s buddy. Bunny is the next child in line: She’s friendly and outgoing and loves being nine! She also played basketball; helped fire folks, too; She has lots of friends, some old and some new. She’s learned to ski now like her big bro & sis, And her singing at church you just won’t want to miss! At a local school show she did a country line dance, And learned about Africa whenever she had a chance. Bee is seven, a real big girl now: While skiing with Dad she learned the “snowplow”. She played basketball and scored points for her team, Becoming a veterinarian is Bee's latest dream She still loves Spiderman, pirates and such But lately she’s gotten a gentler touch. She takes care of the babies, both real and toy, And cooking with mom is time for great joy. Who plays in the dirt whenever he can. He loves pirates and trucks and playing with Bug. Whatever he does, he does it with style! He loves to “do school” and is learning to read, And he helps us all out when he sees a need. He loves the babies and can’t wait ‘til they can play And he wants to grow up and be a cowboy someday. Next comes the Princess, our sweet Kitty Grace Whose smile lights up her whole pretty face. She loves to play babies and make meals with me, Dress up and sit while the big girls have tea She’s talking more now and learning to sing And calling up Nana’s a favorite thing She screeches a lot and can sometimes be naughty And lately she just wants to learn to go – potty! :o) Lamb is the Chunky-Man, very laid-back: His favorite things are his cup and a snack! He’s crawling quite well, and cruising around, Smiles a lot though he makes hardly a sound Puppy's the youngest (by only a minute) If something is happening – he’s right there in it! Walking and talking - his new word is “buh-duh” (brother) It’s great fun to watch them play with each other! So there you have it – the family in rhyme I’m running short now on paper and time We pray you are blessed and your new year is great Here’s wishing you all Happy 2008! |
