A mixture of homemade ice cream
Some of it dripping down your chin
You reach down and snare it with your finger
Slurp it back in again
Can there be anything better than homemade ice cream
It's almost sinfully exciting
Give you a feeling akin to ecstasy
As bits of it keeps missing your mouth
Making things messy
Ah, but that is the joy of the moment
The sloppy moments of oozing ice cream
On a hot sultry day
Be careful now
Don't trip over that garden hose

Yes indeed our passion is our kids passion, up to a certain extent, jwesley. Thanks for being here.
