Sugar and spice
and everything nice
That’s what little girls are made of.
had I been asked
in my youth
what I thought I would’ve had a house full of
my prediction:
GIRLS. GIRLS. GIRLS!
GIRLS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN!
oH GIRLS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN!
was our theme song growing up
my 2 sisters
and 5 stair step cousins-ALL GIRLS
froo-froo is what I knew:
playing house
playing babies
accessories
nail polish
matchy-matchy
NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK
DRAMA
with a dash more
D-R-A-M-A!
fast forward 30 years
my reality:
BOYS!
-
-
Slugs and snails
-
And puppy-dogs’ tails,
-
and
MUD! 
SPURS 
HANDSOMENESS 
and BUGS 
and CUTENESS 
and CAMPFIRES 
and TOUGHNESS 
and more TOUGHNESS 
and FROGS 
PONIES 
and FISH 
and FEATHER FUN 
that’s what our BOYS
-
-
are made ofand I wouldn’t trade em’for a house FULLof GIRLS!
