He Is a Real Problem

He is a real problem the other counselor told me She has given me a year of misinformation So, I am not ready to jump on this hook I go to get him; he is seven, and super funny. He is a cartoonist like me, and uses words like “please” and “thank you” Words I myself often forget to use We have such a great time I forget to take him back We are ten minutes late; I will take all blame On the way I feel something crispy put into my hand. It is half a chocolate chip cookie. He grins at me. This will not be our last visit He has made my Friday delightful!

Thank the good Lord for little boys (and girls) like this. If not for them, you would soon throw up your hands and quit!
