Lori, you’re a tiny, dainty, little girl –
With eyes of blue and light brown curls.
When it comes to high-climbing, you’re an ace, now that’s a fact.
And when you feel mistreated, you bite instead of hitting back.
My, how you do love to play peek-a-boo –
And another favorite game of yours is wearing your Mommy’s shoes.
You like to poke your finger in the frosting on the cake –
And Oh! When you are scolded, you are such a little “fake”.
You run into the corner – hide your face as if to cry –
Then you turn ‘round – with a great big grin – not a tear drop in your eyes.
We think you are a sweetie, and are very pleased with you –
Stay as you are, and we are sure, you’ll be a life-long charmer too.

Gaylia Kenslow – Stogsdill
