A Street Named After Me

Dear City Hall,

   I think it would be nice to have a street after me,
My grandma 1st had this name, then mommy, and now me makes number 3.
I come from a long line of women, who have done some GREAT! things,
And I have too...can you belive i was only 3, when i tied my 1st shoe?

  Well, grandma taught my mommy how to make the best oatmeal cookies...
Mommy says i'ts in her SOUL, well...I get some of it inside of me too, EVERYTIME i lick the 
bowl!!!

  I listen to my mommy, I listen to my dad, I brush my teeth before i go to bed,
and i feed my golfish Chad. I eat ALL my vegetables, like i should, and I'm sure..
THIS week, I've been very, very good!

So please...can I have a street named after me?

Oh yeah!....My name is,

Willamenna Anna-marie Sandy Apple Bee

Happy New Year

H-is for the bad haircut my 
brother gave to me.

A-is for the grade i got, after 
changing it from a "C".

P-is for the awful sticky 
pudding, mom made oneday,

P-is for that same pudding, i 
gave to grandpa, told hold up 
his toupee.

Y-is for ALL the yo-yo's i broke, 
doing so many tricks,


N-is shaving our dog Snoopy, 
and leaving him with nicks.

E-is for the Easter bunny 
costume, i made using mom's 
fur coat,

W-is for the Way she yelled at 
me, reaching this HIGH musical 
note!


Y-is for the yellow food 
coloring, i put inside my nose,

E-is for the easy money Doug 
made, for the SECRET of HOW 
SNOT GLOWS.

A-is for playing with Aunt Bee's 
dentures, that I accidently 
dropped and broke,

R-is for REPLACING the two 
front teeth, with TIC-TACS, 
that almost made her 
choke!
