We Love You, Aunt Red

We are so very lucky to have such a wonderful and loving close family friend, Aunt Red, that writes poems for all the momentous occassions in our lives.

Here's the poem she wrote for Grace's 2nd Birthday:

Happy Birthday, "Miss Grace"

Last year on my birthday, I was only "ONE, "

But now I've grown bigger, and I'm having so much fun!

A whole year has passed, and I'm already "TWO!"

I'm enjoying all my friends, and I have quite a few.

I often go to school with Mom---those hours make me glad;

Then, after school sometimes, we go for ice cream with my Dad.

I like to play with boys and girls,

I lovefunny clothes and pretty curls.

My grown-up toys are lots of fun,

But I love the outdoors and the summer sun!

I'm learning a lot at Sunday School,

Then---it's fun to play in my swimming pool!

My room is fixed especially for me,

And I love the cartoons on TV!

God put me in a world of beauty and fun,

And I want to be like Jesus when my heavenly crown is won.

Happy Birthday!

I love You!
