I had a little poodleSept 5
My Family Tree
Families are big, and families are small,
Families give love, and care to us all.
People in families work and play, too.
I live in a family, and so do you!
Families are different, none are the small.
Some families have special names.
Families have ways, so special and fine.
You love your family, I sure love mine!

Grandparents
These are Grandma’s glasses
This is Grandma’s hat
And this is the way she folds her hands
And lays them in her lap
These are Grandpa’s glasses
This is Grandpa’s hat
And this is the way he folds his arms
And takes a little nap

Mom
I love you Mommy
My dearest Mommy,
You make me happy
When I am sad.
I want to tell you
I really love you!
When I’m with you,
I'm so glad.

Daddy here's a hug for you,
And lots of kisses too.
Each hug and kiss you get today
Says that I love you!

Pets
His coat was silver gray,
One day I thought I'd bathe him,
To wash the dirt away,
I washed my little poodle,
then dried him with a towel
My poodle seemed to like his bath,
He didn't even growl.Oct 17
Siblings
See my family? See them all?
Some are short
Some are tall

Mother,

And me.
