Snakes, Snails, and Puppy Dog Tails.....

Happy 8th Birthday Cage!!

What I have learned from my Son.

1. If you hear the toilet flush followed by "uh oh",
it's already to late.
2. Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.
3. If a little boy asks you to smell his fingers, don't!
4. Little boys like to stick their fingers in their bums.
5. Frogs do not like washing machines.
6. Dogs wont land on their feet if thrown from a balcony.
7. Some Lego's will pass through the digestive track
of a 3-year old.
8. A two year old has the strength to hang on to the
garage
door while it is opening.
9. Vacuums can suck up Earthworms.
10. It is really hard to clean a vacuum with Earthworms in it.
11. A two year old is capable of kicking out the screen on a
window to climb on the roof.
12. Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke. Lots!
13. Ceiling fans will not hold a 35 pound boy in a
Super Man costume.

14. Hiding a mouse in the heating vent isn't a real good idea.
15. Riding a bike with a cape on can choke you.

I scrub the wall of fingerprints,
Pick up the mounds of clothes.
I sweep the dirt that shoes track in-
Wish I could use a hose!

Meals are served from dawn to dark,
Dirty dishes crowd the sink.
Just when they're washed and put away-
Everyone wants a drink!

The washer pulls the dirty grime
From pants worn thin and patched.
They look so very neat and clean-
Yuck, look what the pockets hatched!

Broken bones and bloody knees,
I should have been a nurse.
I take it all in shaky stride-
Just grateful it's not worse!

Screams and shouts and arguments
Test the keeping of my cool.
They left the neighbor's faucet on-
See their new front yard pool!

A soothing bath is ecstasy,
A reward at the end of my rope.
Raising boys isn't really bad-
But first I must wash the soap!

A rose can say I Love You,
Orchids can enthrall;
But a weed bouquet in a chubby fist,
Oh my, that says it all!

We love you Buddy, Happy Birthday.
