Oh Me Oh My

I am sitting here waiting to smile, I'm dress up in style
I love when it's picture day, there's lots of toys and candy
My Mom told me "don't fidget around, just sit still and smile"
After this final take, theres more pictures with my family

Mom bought me this dress, I think it really was the prettiest
I saw one with big blue bows, but my Mom always knows
"Because it's permanent press and made for a princess"
He forgot to say smile, but what do you think of my pose?

Oh, this is so cute, Mitch. It looks like it would have fit that one contest of Linda's from a while back if it were in that form she asked for. Loved the way you made permanent press rhyme with princess!

The girl you describe sounds like me, Mitch. Always fidgeting when Mom tried to dress me up. She wouldn't let me buy anything that needed ironing. Now you know why I was never smiling in those pictures. LOL Very cute poem! Love, Carolyn
