I got some pretty good Christmas presents although as I get older and because I’ve become a parent, it’s not so much about me but about my child and I find I don’t mind that too much. I get as much joy out of him receiving presents as I get receiving presents for myself.
One of the best presents I got the Christmas just gone though was a poem written by my sister’s boyfriend with a small contribution from my sister. Here it is:
Merry Christmas J & J
you are a patient and great mum
which sometimes is not much funJ is your beautiful child
even if his hair is wildwe love your company when we meet
even with monty at your feetwe admire your attitude
though you don’t get much latitudeyou have done it on your own
but never feel you are alonesafari gang knows you are a funky chick
wouldn’t it be great one night if you had a trickkeep being J and the loving mother
as you are like no other
I was so chuffed with this I just had to share it.
