Last day of school and son brought "the boys" home....
Video game playing
The Skittles passed around
A nervous giggle
When pitter patter
They went down
On the wood floor
But no matter
Listening to...
Their idle chatter
Made me smile
To fondly recall
Last Days of school
Oh, what a ball!
I picked the candies
Up one by one
And felt real glad
Knowing the boys had fun.

Kids just now getting out? My little darlings got out May the 24th, but the children start back the 2nd week in August. Cute write cuzz you know how to write them that way.
A humorous look at the world and life through my eyes.
Follow the author and his wife, as they travel the world …. several times over.
Laugh at their funny stories, self-inflicted crazy events, strange observations, wacky zoo facts and snippets
