A Child's View
"My Mommy hung the moon.
She tied it with string.
My mommy's good at
everything.
She lit up the sun,
so bright and so round.
She puffed out each cloud,
stretched trees from the ground.
When she pours down rain so it's wet and dark,
I clump up on her like she's Noah's ark.
She zaps out the thunder and makes lightening glow,
then crayons for me a giant rainbow.
She Feathered the birds. She taught them to chirp.
She taught me to speak, my cousins to burp.
She grows all the food
and makes it from scratch...
...and when she bakes me cookies,
it's a BIG MAMMA BATCH!
She writes all the books.
She made me TV.
She drew every 'toon, boxed all DVD's.
She webbed all the world, she dotted.com
She e'd the email, my own CD MOM.
My mommy's the boss, She drives in the pool.
She cures all the sick.
She works every tool
She ZOOMS in the car, and boy, it goes fast!
And those rocket ships, guess who made them blast?
She flies all the planes.
She rows all the ships.
She makes my new kite do spins and backflips.
She molds ever ball, carves rackets and bats.
And stealing the bases? She's way good at that!
She buzzed every bee.
She spun every spider
She growled every bear.
She striped every tiger.
My mommy makes music and boy, can she rock.
While we hip and hop, my mommy moonwalks.
She rules the whole world from her throne. She's my queen.
My mommy is nice. She never is mean.
She pours all the seas and sparkles each star.
And then she collects one in my night-light jar.
And when she paints night, so jet black and deep,
my mother ship rocks me gently to sleep.
I dream about how she gave me my start,
I love my mommy with all of my heart.
Then when I'm asleep all safe in my nest.
my mommy stays up and does all the rest.
My mommy hung the moon. She tied it with string.
My mommy's good at
everything."

We checked this out from our library today. It is my new favorite children's book. Illustrations are awesome and the words are incredible. My three year feels this way about me, I am certain. My hope is the other two do too. I fail so many times a day, seriously. In my heart, I would do all this for them. Every single word. I would do anything for my children. A-N-Y thing.
Now, I hope the middle of November comes soon. Mark and I are planning a L-O-V-E adult only trip. He hee!
