A
Sunday 
afternoon
at my daughter's.
My mother, grandkids and nephew are there.

We discuss what the relationship of
my nephew's new
baby could
be to
me!

Would 
cute, sweet
Levine be 
my great-nephew?
Levine lifts his fluffy white head and barks!

Too funny, a dog being a member of the family yes, but to call him your great-nephew, too much.

I love the way you base most of your verses on family. This piece felt as though I'm following a reality show of your family, lol. Congrats Andrea, for your placement in the contest!! ;-)
