April came and the rains did fall,
May and June came with flowers for all.
Summer brought the heat of season,
and people sat in the living room air-condition.
Fall brought colors bright and bold,
Halloween haunted spirits nights cold.
And as the last leaf fell off the now naked tree,
Winter came and slapped a freezing spree.
In the lively hood of the dancing spring,
bustling actives merriness brings.
“Beyond the silence of summers end,”
the roll of the school bus wheels begin.
The school bus wheels rolling is great for me,
being a monitor provides my paycheck you see.
So “beyond the silence of summers end,”
the ride onto educational pursuit grins.
Succumbing to child-like fantasy glee
To my special boy’s haven I do flee
Meeting his friends, Kindo, Lovey, Deelight
As well as Valiente of great smile’s might.
Kindo shares blessings with gestures so kind
Helping fellow kids in projects designed
Lovey likewise showers healthy pop cheer
Thus, the hyper-actives stay tamely dear.
Around cute Deelight, laughter does abound
Her blissful antics surround freedom sound
Meanwhile, Valiente boosts children’s courage
Propelling them to surmount weakness’ cage.
Midst this pleasure scene, I’m stirred to pray
Beseeching God for gracious hope-faith ray
To build up lives through His compassion deed
Propped by His grace* commencing from love’s seed.
*2John 1:3 Grace be with you, mercy, and peace, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.

Our Sweet Little Girl Olivia.....
Olivia is our sweet little girl with her charming face
She dances like a butterfly and swim like a fish
She talks like a parrot and act like a grown woman
She laughs with joyful heart and attracts us with her sweet smiles
She sleeps like an angel floating in the clouds
She is like a candle of the house who keeps everyone in illuminate
She is an intelligent little girl with so much enthusiastic with her lessons
She is such a brave girl brings love and strength to our house
She loves her papa and mama with plenty of kisses shared
She fights with her sisters but she love them so much
She always plays with her friends and sometime drive them crazy too
She is our sweet little girl who keeps us happy with her actives.

And jealous by signify, foes smelled

Culled off mine attends thy bachelor.

In state done so hornily, so straight
And be jealous in signify a foe wan
Culled up essential by her, and obvious
Culled off mine attends of bachelor.
