MOMMY LOOK WHAT I CAN DO   (BOY)

I CAN DO THINGS JUST LIKE YOU.  (GIRL)

 

I CAN PICK UP TOYS & ALL   (GIRL)

I’LL DRIVE MY FIRE TRUCK DOWN THE HALL. (BOY)

 

WE’LL TAKE TURNS ROLLING THAT BOUNCY BALL.  (BOY)

WE’LL ROLL IT ROLL IT DOWN THE HALL.  (GIRL)

 

I’LL MAKE MY SOLDIERS MARCH THERE TOO

LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT LIKE REAL ONES DO.  (BOY)

 

I’’LL TAKE MY BABIES FOR A STROLL

THROUGH THE PARK, NOW DOWN WE GO.  (GIRL)

 

DOWN TO THE ZOO BY THE LION’S CAGE

THEY’ER DRINKING TEA OUT IN THE SHADE.  (GIRL)  (TEA PARTY)

 

THEY’ER GETTING TIRED OUT IN THE SUN

THEIR TUMMIES FULL,  THEY’ER TEA IS DONE.  (GIRL)

 

I THINK I’LL TUCK THEM IN FOR A NAP,  (GIRL)

HEY LOOK!  I FOUND A TREASURE MAP.  (BOY)

 

I THINK I’LL PACK MY GEAR & GO

THROUGH THE JUNGLE, OR THROUGH THE SNOW   (BOY)

 

TO FIND THE TREASUE THAT’S WAITING FOR ME.

I WONDER WHAT THAT TREASURE COULD BE?  (BOY)

 

MAYBE IT’S A PILE OF GOLD

WITH JEWELS & GEMS & FORTUNES UNTOLD  (BOY)

 

OUT ON SOME ISLAND IN THE SEA (BOY)

BOO! SURPRISE IT’S ME.  (GIRL)

 

DON’T BE SILLY WE HAVE TO GET DONE.  (BOY)

LET’S GET GOING & HAVE SOME FUN.  (GIRL)

 

THERE ARE SO MANY TOYS.   WE’LL NEVER BE THROUGH.

WE’LL NEVER GET DONE,  THEN WHAT WILL WE DO?  (BOY)

 

WE’LL GET THEM IN OUR ROOM YOU’LL SEE

WE CAN DO IT YOU & ME.  (GIRL)

 

WE’LL USE THE CRANE TO PUT THEM AWAY  (BOY)

BACK ON THE SHELF.   WE’ER DONE TODAY. (MOMMY)

 

WHO KNEW OUR CLEANING EXPIDITION

COULD BE MUCH MORE FUN THAN FISHING. (BOY)

 

I KNEW WE COULD PICK UP ALL THE TOYS. (KIDS)

YOU’ER SUCH A GOOD GIRL & BOY. (MOMMY)

 

HEY,   MOMMY LOOK WHAT WE CAN DO.

WE CAN DO IT  . HOW ABOUT YOU?  (KIDS POINTING AT READER)

 

BUT WE’ER STILL WORKING ON THINGS TOO,

BUCKLING OUR BELTS & TIEING OUR SHOES  (KIDS)

 

SNAPPING OUR PANTS & BRUSHING OUR TEETH.  (KIDS)

NOW,  IT’S OFF TO BED.  IT’S TIME TO SLEEP  (MOMMY)

 

THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS WE WANT TO DO.

LET US HELP.      TEACH US TOO.  (KIDS)

 

HEY MOMMY LOOK WHAT I CAN DO.  (KIDS)  (SLEEPING DREAMING)

I KNEW YOU COULD.   I LOVE YOU TWO.  (MOMMY) (IN DOORWAY WATCHINGTHEM SLEEP, REFLECTING)

 

TO JOHN & KATIE, WITH LOVE YOUR MOMMY.
