Poem: Dad and apple pie
Dad, dad our great
And awesome dad.
Oh, how we love
Our wonderful dad.
He’s kind, special
And wonderful too.
He was sent to earth
Just for me and you.
We are glad Heavenly Father
Has sent him to us.
Oh, how we love
Our dad so very much.
He is so sweet
Like an apple pie,
Or maybe chocolate milk
My, oh my.
We are thankful
For Father’s Day.
To honor our dad
In a very special way!
Wrote this in June 2000. I was asked to write a poem for Father's Day and each dad at church was going to get a slice of apple pie. So I was asked to add the words "apple pie" in the poem. Silly poem I know, but I had fun writing it.

Poem: Twin Sisters
Twin sisters Kindsey and Kendree went to school
It was winter so they were wearing all wool
The snow was so pretty that they wanted to play
They wanted to stay outside all the long day
When the bell rang the girls headed for class
As soon as they saw their teacher they wanted a pass
A pass so they could play in the snow
Yet their teacher said to them, "no, no no!"
So they sat down and stared out the window
They looked out the window at the beautiful snow
When school was over they ran threw the door
The girls wanted to play more and more
Snow balls were thrown, angels were made, they had fun all day
Kindsey and Kendree did not want to stop their play

Poem: Cookies
Cookies come in many a variety
Different textures, some are pretty.
Cookies are fun to mix and bake
I know what I want to make.
Cookies with nuts a great too
Or leave them out, it is up to you.
Cookies make a wonderful gift
Just what one needs for a lift.
Cookies are welcome at gatherings
Why not? They are quite pleasing.
Cookies are mouthwatering food
Everyone loves them for they are plain good!

Poem: Being a Mother
What is it like being a mother?
It is having joy like no other.
The popular expression may be…
Being a mom is not always easy!
If you are a mother you are blessed,
It may not seem that way with little rest.
Good days and bad days blend together,
Your emotions can change like the weather.
You can be tired, cranky and frustrated,
And looking forward to going to bed,
But to hear your little one say, “I love you”,
Makes it worthwhile everything you do.
It does help to continually remember,
You chose this role of being a mother.
Another common phrase you will hear,
It is worth it! Even with a shedding of a tear.
Perfection is not required but doing your best,
Your job is to prepare your child to leave the nest.
Be careful not to judge yourself too harshly,
You weren’t mean to be a mom faultlessly!
Love your children and always yourself,
Being a mother is worth more than any wealth!

Poem: I'm So Mean
I’m so mean, I make you clean your room
I’m so mean, You have to use the broom
I’m so mean, You are served healthy meals
I’m so mean, A shower you have to take
I’m so mean, I share the cookies I will make
I’m so mean, I make you go to bed
I'm so mean, Enough said

Poem inspired by my kids. Not too long ago this summer one of my daughters told me I am a mean mom. This day my daughter was fighting me on taking a shower. Anyways I starting to sing a song using similar words. I decided to make the words into a poem.

I’m so mean, That when chores are done you get to playI’m so mean, I make you go to bed
I'm so mean, Enough said

Poem: My Daughter Hillary
A wonderful thought I would like to share
What a blessing it is to see such a gift
Through the coming of my daughter, my special little girl
I wish with all that is in me for her to succeed in life
She is here for me to learn and to grow
I know she will have dealings with strife
She I do hope will learn to love those around her
I love her and I adore my little Hillary
Is a message that is dear to my heart
It is a part of my love for a beautiful child
Of a daughter of mine, a daughter of God
Not another thing can quite compare
What a blessing it is to see such a gift
A gift from Heavenly Father
A father who loves me as Hillary’s mother
A mother who has been given a special assignment
To teach her babe and to give her a lift
Through the coming of my daughter, my special little girl
I have learned a glorious lesson of what selfless love is
The love I have for her is very great
As I look at her my heart is exceedingly full
Her marvelous beauty conquers that of a pearl
I wish with all that is in me for her to succeed in life
And to also have success in heaven
I want to share an eternity with her
I want to share in the joys as her mother and as her friend
I look forward to watching her to someday become a wife
She is here for me to learn and to grow
To learn what it is like to be a mother
I am blessed to have her here with me
I am fortunate to be able to teach her
To teach her I love her and I hope she will always know
I know she will have dealings with strife
Her life will be full of learning and growth
I want her to be strong and fight for good
I want her to make the right choices
My goal for her is to have a wonderful life
She I do hope will learn to love those around her
To share her gifts that she has been given
She helps me in ways I hold dear to my heart
I know she will help others in need
I am thankful she was chosen to be sent to earth
I love her and I adore my little Hillary
She has been a special blessing to me
I am grateful for God for sending her to me
She’s in my thoughts and always in my heart
I shall forever love my sweet daughter Hillary
