Birthday haiku, part II

Sunday, January 27th, 2008

OK. Here’s the deal.
Spent the weekend together
Nobody razzed him.

30 happens once.
Gotta make it sting a bit
Always teases me.

HAP-HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
Can’t wait to celebrate more!
I love you, AT!!

(hee)

Birthday haiku

Sunday, January 27th, 2008

I’m digging 30
Woke up cuddling my gal
And slept in till 8

Got Zeppelin on
And fixin to cook some eggs
And a spot of toast

These are the good days
And there ain’t no end in sight
On a Sunday morn

Might head out today
And get me a new cellphone
On a family plan

Got some birthday cards
From my three sets of parents
And friendly emails

Bisc sent a remote
A “jumbo universal
Marked “to the old fart”

My only regret
Might be that I can’t mock Eaves
For being 30

New Art Deco theme
The Lady and I picked out
Collaborating

A small suggestion
Increase the browser font size
Ease those “old fart” eyes

Next-mom haiku

Sunday, January 20th, 2008

One day at his school
Juicebox told one of his friends
“This is my next mom”

Told AT bout it
We decided that it works
Next instead of Step

So, I’m the “next mom”
It has been an awesome ride
Can’t wait for the rest.

Last night was real neat
First time for me with all this
New things intrigue me.

Interrupted sleep
A little voice at the door
At 2:10 am.

It is rewarding
To give comfort when needed
Every parent’s job.

I’ve never had this
OMG! It’s so awesome.
Fulfilling and real.

Laying back in bed
All I did was treasure it.
I love my three boys.

Wing’s Birthday Haiku

Sunday, January 13th, 2008

Wing’s birthday haiku.
no eggs, milk, plenty of spice
Vegan cake is good!

Wing is tired now.
Not old enough for coffee.
Maybe it’s nap time

Missus took Lug out;
so quiet, so quiet when
just one kid is gone.

I hear Wing crying.
Soon he will be too big, too
old to walk to sleep.

In 2008

We are all still here
Enjoying time together
Finding our “normal”

Treasure all the past
Dreaming about the future
Living the present
