October

October

October went by oh so fast
The weather got a little less hot
The twins took swim class
And we played in the parks a lot

Daddy was gone for work the first week
We managed to get by better than we thought
First time to use a babysitter, she was very sweet
Kind of nice to know that sanity can be bought

The big day for mommy was finally here
After practice swims, time on bikes, and running lots of miles
Grinning from ear to ear
She finished her triathalon with a smile

Baby Ginger is officially weaned
She is getting so big it was a bittersweet day
But she was ready so it seemed
And now she is sick, is this the price we pay?

This Halloween was the best one yet
The whole family dressed up, so much fun!
Little Ariel, George, and my gnome made quite the set
They're all in bed now and the candy thrown out, save for one
...or two.

Paul is at the World Series as I write this
Wish for him they'd leave with a win
But he is crossing a bucket item off his list
One inning left now, it's looking grim

Hello November I've been waiting for you
Thanksgiving, Hot tea, Leaf Piles
Trip to the zoo planned, a festival too
Life is good, I'll remember to smile
