Twas the night before School, when all through the house
Not a child was stirring, not even a mouse.
The backpacks were hung by the front door with care,
In hopes that the 1st day would with a cheer.
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of school books and recess danced in their heads.
And this mama sat down to rest,
and decided this summer was the best!
And then, in a twinkling, I have decided to cherish
each and every stage of my three little ones.
As I drew in my head, all the memories of past.
Down the street the bus will soon shall appear fast.
Brett will dress in his new bow tie shirt and some new Nike Shox.
And my Jakey in his Captain American Shirt will look like a Fox.
My bundle of Joy that is named Brylee will wear her new dress and feel rad.
And they will look like smart kids, as they swing on their book bags.
They will spring on the bus and better give their Mom a wave.
And away they will go down the street toward the school looking brave.
And they will hear me exclaim, I love you and will miss you!
"Happy First Day of School, and to all a Great Day."
