Gomer's Happy Mother's Day Post


Back in 2011, Gomer decided he'd like to guest post today.  Here is an (unedited) "vertical poem" he wrote for me for Mother's Day:



My Mom is very sweet.

Offten you are nice.

Tulips smell good but you smell better.

Happy Mother's Day.

Either I am good or bad you still love me.

Rainbows are pretty but you are more prettier.



Someday I will blackmail him with this.

Happy Mother's Day to all moms out there.

Oh beautiful!
My 7 yo writes those things and part of me wonders what they are trying to score by buttering me up like that.

He seemed to be stuttering during the "often you are nice.." I think he was skeered. I know I am.

I want to see what Adolpha would come up with......

Rainbows are pretty but your friends are prettier than you

Cute! This is the stuff we look back on as we're ready to strangle them when they're in their teens! ;) Happy Mother's Day!

Nicole said...

That is so sweet, hope you had a fabulous Mother's Day!

Jill said...

You should be super proud of your son! I teach 7 year olds and they have a really hard time writing vertical poems like that - let alone spelling everything so well. :) Happy Mother's Day!

AW! That's so SWEET! And what a great effort, too!

Furtheron said...

:-) you are so lucky to have your kids - don't you dare blackmail him with it... just show it to the first girl he brings home when old enough that you really like - if this doesn't convince her to marry him nothing will... ;-)

Lauren said...

Very sweet...please tell me Hubs got you a real present tho :)

Katy @ Experienced Bad Mom said...

Awww, so cute. Is it safe to say that he got his writing skills from the Hubs?

I love kids' poems. And I love them even more when you can save them for blackmail years down the road. Here's mine, which my then-8 year old son wrote after he and his sister were sent to their rooms for fighting:

“Moms”

I love my Mom
she is nice.
She is cool
like a piece of rice.

I love my Mom
she never brings hate.
She always helps
to keep things straight.

I love my Mom
she’s not a toilet.
If there’s a surprise
she won’t spoil it.

She won’t kick me
or set off a bomb.
That’s why
I love you MOM!

Cute! My mother's day vertical poem went like this:

P is for Pene (my nickname)
E is for Elephant (what are you trying to say, son?)
N is for Nutella (this kid is obsessed)
E is for Easter (what the heck?)

Hahaha. I'm keeping it forever. :)

Tara said...

Beautiful! Wondering when my little guy (who is 3.5 yo) will start bringing home that kind of stuff?

Kp said...

That's precious. Good job Gomer!

Amy said...

Or... Rainbows are pretty, and dad can get someone prettier.

Unknown said...

Happy Mother's Day to you!! Thank you for sharing!

Hahaha, this is glorious. Definitely hang on to this and use it at his graduation party or during a toast at his wedding or something.
