Shhh ! It's A Secret ... ~*Marge Tindal*~  Out behind the shed when I was just a kid Mama had a secret spot she thought that she kept hid Snoopy little thing I was I soon found her out Mama tried to hide it but I know what it's all about In the corner garden where open I found the latch discovered her the little hiding place she called the 'cabbage patch' Found my big brother, Tony sister Shari too the row that held little Mike and sister Lori too There I was among them 'cute as cute' could be Mama said the cabbage patch was where babies would come to be Now as I return to the garden I see my own patch of pride Robert, Tracie, and David with Steven by their side I've come back to the garden to prepare another plot I hope to see it ripen with grandkids and pray there are a lot So if you want to see where babies really come from come with me to the cabbage patch I'll bet you'll find your special one Thanks to my Mama for leaving the gate latch open with all the little secrets of where grandbabies are - I'm hoping ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Marge, this is adorable, to say the least. I remember telling my parents and inlaws by the way of sending flowers with a note saying "congratulations, you are going to be grandparents". We just forgot to sign it haha. We each have older siblings so we were the last each set of parents called. We still laugh about it. And my gorgeous daughter is 19. Wow time sure goes much too quickly. Loved this Marge.... May your dreams always dance to the rhythm of a lover's heartbeat... |

This is sweet!!! I heard once that babies are bits of stardust blown from the hand of God....I'm praying you'll have some stardust in your life soon. |
