Poem for a Two-year-old

Griffen Is Two

by

Grandma Baadsgaard

I love you buddy. Have a great day!

When you’re turning two

There’s lots of work to do

Like turn every knob in the house

Then sneak around quiet as a mouse

Grab lots of treats to nibble

And use lots of pens to scribble

All over freshly painted walls

Then counter-tops newly installed

Next you find balls to throw

And make forts in the snow

Climb on beds and jump

using your arms for a pump

Then pick up rocks to pound

Smash pan lids for startle sounds

Whenever food is near

It is your job to make it smear

Then make your belly wiggle

Right there in your middle

For if you’re turning two

There is lots of work to do . . .

Whew!
