The Abc's of Memawship

The ABC’s of “Memawship”
     By Dane Smith-Johnsen

Adore angels. 
Bring blessings.
Carry cuddles. 
Deliver delights.
Enjoy embraces.
Find funny faces.
Give giggles.
Hug happily.
Invigorate imagination.
Jubilate jiggles.
Keep Kisses.
Love Laughing.
Mentor merrily.
Note nonsense.
Ogle oodles 
Pick posies. 
Quilt quilts. 
Rear righteously.
Send something.
Tote tons of toys.
Uplift uproariously. 
Voice victoriously
Wiggle waggles. 
X O X O X O X
Yap youthfully.
Zing zealously

This is so uplifting, Dane! All "memaws" should feel this way about their grandchildren. Love the XOXOXOX line. That's what it's really about, isn't it. A job to provide love. Excellent write! Love, Carolyn
