Birthday Poem

First thing this morning, I received a poem from my son, Bryant (Briana’s father).  I almost fell out of my chair laughing as I read this poem:

On your birthday, it’s time to reflect,
For the passing of time leads to change.
What once was important we leave;
Our priorities and goals rearrange.

It’s official; you’ve lived one more year.
You’re birthday gifted and caked,
But don’t think you’re fully mature,
‘Cause you’re really only half-baked!

By Joanna Fuchs

Of course, because he grew up in my house, Bryant knows his father well.  And as my father used to say when I acted smart butt, “At least he comes by it legitimately.”

Thanks Bryant.
