Ricky

There once was a boy of three
Ricky was just as cute as could be
He got a bottle of orange pop
From his Grandpa's barbershop
Which leads to great adventures, says he




Follow the adventures of Soda Pop with Richard Lamoureus

Such a cool mom of a respected poet, you are. Not many moms can write limericks this good. Made me smile. Your love for each other is evident for everyone to see. I just read his most recent piece and your comment. I try not to always cry with every sad and beautiful poetry but couldn't stop myself. Just wanted you to know that your mother-son relationship is a source of inspiration for this reader from afar. Sincerely. Kim

Thanks for the visit and the lovely thoughts. I am very fortunate to have such a wonderful and supportive son. I am on the soup because of him and he does me proud daily. I know he is in my corner for my current problems even though he is a continent away Thank God daily for my wonderful family. Without them I would be nothing. Blessings Edith

If I found one used in my travels I would get it for him. We found a teddy bear for his brother a few years back. I was such a bad mom throwing out the things they liked. Hugs to you my dear Edith

Happy New Year Edith. I haven't had much time lately and my computer had a lot of problems over the holidays but I will definitely check it out.

Aren't you the best, Mama Bear. I'm surely following the adventures. :) I love close relationship you have with Rick. I lost my Mama in 2000...I still miss her. He is blessed to have you by his side. Thank you for the love you show me as well. God bless you.

I am your surrogate mother now. I am blessed to have all of my children and would not miss a day with any of them. Each relationship is special and individual to them. Hugs and love Edith
