Goofy little poem to Logan

Logan is a stinker;
Happy, joyful boy-
He loves to play all day,
Even if he has no toy!

Love him?
Yes I do...
More than little words can say.
I'm so blessed to have him in my life...
Happy as a pig in mud on a hot day!!!

I wrote this a couple evenings ago as Logan was doing his homework...Just goofing around, playing with words and jotted it down. I left it lying on the coffee table and didn't think anything about it. This morning he brings it to me and he had the biggest smile on his face. He asked me to read it to him and I asked if he knew what it was. He said that he did because he had just read it, but he wanted me to read it out loud to him...So I did, and was rewarded with a big, sweet hug!

If a child has the right attitude, when they grow old it will be the simple, silly, goofy, happy things us parents and grandparents do that will be remembered best...and those memories of us being silly will still contain the magic that will make those adult kids smile again, all those years later...even after our bodies are gone from this earth:)
