Lumpy oatmeal makes me crazy!

0 posted 2008-05-03 10:18 PM


Two bowls of strawberry frosting
and two jars of sprinkles
made two little girls very happy
as they cooked and mixed and created,
then decorated their faces with color.

Two bowls of strawberry frosting
and two jars of sprinkles
Made a memory out of an afternoon.
I bought the sprinkles
and I made the frosting with lots of pink

(and lots, lots more pink –
we can never have enough pink, you know.
That is what I learned today anyway!)

Two bowls of strawberry frosting
and two jars of sprinkles
plus two little girls made my day perfect.
The memory is forever
framed in a pink memory book within my mind

Cute Alison,

Careful, someone just might move in and eat all that good stuff.

Two bowls of frosting
Two jars of sprinkles
Two little girls
One special mommy
One perfect day

Equals:

A whole lot
Of special memories

For us too
Of one special poem

Dang it you made my eyes water.
Thank you for that.

“Lumpy oatmeal makes me crazy”

My word, dear Alison! It is as if you took a page out of my own memory book of my two daughters.

May all your memories be sweet and such a lovely shade of pink!

Loving hug and a big, warm smile,

Linda xo
