Happy Day to All the Mamas

Beeper made this drawing of me and him under a sky that is raining hearts in a rainbow of colors.  Really, is there anything better than being a mama when you are the recipient of so much love?  Also, I like to see that he sees me as being so skinny with such long legs.  Lovely boy.

And as long as I am here writing about my boy, thought I would also share a little poem he wrote for Earth Day--because it may be my favorite ever creative endeavor of his so far....

IF I WERE IN CHARGE OF THE WORLD

If I were in the charge of the world

I'd cancel school and tomatoes and

really early mornings.

If I were in charge of the world

there'd be more dinosaurs and pet

octopus and candy every day.

If I were in charge of the world

you wouldn't have fruits or vegetables

you wouldn't have smelly socks

you wouldn't have shoes.

If I were in charge of the world

jellybeans and donuts would be

vegetables.

And a person who forgot to do their

homework and drink lots of water

would still be allowed

to be in charge of the world.

Hope your days are filled with some smiles and loads of love.  Everyone deserves some of that--but especially mamas.
