Today is a very special day…drums are rolling from here to Ireland…it’s Ubermommy’s birthday! Since she’s off on her most uber adventure, I had to get creative with her birthday gifts this year. First, flowers from my garden…
Shooting Star
Salvia
Ixora
And second, a personalized nursery rhyme inspired by my children’s literature class and possibly too much pinot grigio.
There once was a baby named Stacy.
Her mother appeared a bit crazy.
She taped bows to her head
When she got out of bed
To hide the bald little baby.
Stacy grew tall with a full head of hair,
Her eyes shaped like almonds and skin so fair.
She moved to an Irish farm
With her American charm
And won over the cow, goat, and mare.
Happy Birthday!
For those of you outside the family – true story. Our mother really did tape bows to her bald little head!
Someone give this woman a publishing deal.
Yes, please!
