This little poem
has been a favorite of mine since
I became a Mom.
Read it, identify with it, and
then have a little
chuckle....*S*
See Mother,
Funny Funny Mother
See Mother. See Mother
laugh. Mother is happy.
Mother is happy about
Christmas.
Mother has many plans.
Mother has many plans for Christmas.
Mother is organized.
Mother smiles all the time.
Funny, funny Mother.
See Mother. See Mother
smile. Mother is happy.
The shopping is all
done. See the children watch TV.
Watch, children watch.
See the children change
their minds.
See them ask for different
toys.
Look, look, Mother
is not smiling.
Funny, funny Mother.
See Mother. See Mother
sew.
Mother will make dresses.
Mother will make robes.
Mother will make shirts.
See Mother put the
zipper in wrong.
See Mother sew the
dress on the wrong side.
See Mother cut the
skirt too short.
See Mother put the
material away until January.
Look. Look. See Mother
take a tranquilizer.
Funny, funny Mother.
See Mother.
See Mother buy raisins
and nuts.
See Mother buy candied
pineapple and powdered sugar.
See Mother buy flour,
and dates, and pecans, and
brown sugar, and bananas,
and spices, and vanilla.
Look. Look. Mother
is mixing everything together.
See the children press
out cookies.
See the flour on their
elbows.
See the cookies burn.
See the cake fall.
See the children pull
taffy. See mother pull her hair.
See mother clean the
kitchen with the garden hose.
Funny, funny Mother.
See Mother.
See Mother wrap presents.
See Mother look for
the end on the scotch tape roll.
See Mother bite her
finger nails. See Mother go.
See Mother go to the
store 12 times in one hour.
Go Mother go. See
Mother go faster.
Run Mother run.
See Mother trim the
tree.
See Mother have a
party.
See Mother make popcorn.
See Mother wash the
walls.
See Mother scrub the
rug.
See Mother tear up
the organized plan.
See Mother forget
gift for Uncle Harold.
See Mother get hives.
Go Mother go.
See the far away look
in Mother's eyes.
Mother has become
disorganized.
Mother has become
disoriented.
Funny, funny Mother.
It is finally Christmas
morning.
See the happy family.
See Father smile.
Father is happy.
Smile Father smile.
Father loves fruit
cake.
Father loves Christmas
pudding.
Father loves all the
new neckties.
Look, look. See the
happy children.
See the children's
toys.
Santa was very good
to the children.
The children will
remember this Christmas.
See Mother.
Mother is slumped
in a chair.
Mother is crying uncontrollably.
Mother does not look
well.
Mother has ugly dark
circles under her blood shot eyes.
Everyone helps mother
to her bed.
See Mother sleep quietly
under heavy sedation.
See Mother smile.
Funny, funny Mother.
