Haiku Tuesday


It's Haiku Tuesday! I have been amazed by the little man in his cast. He was off pain medicine in a matter of hours and has been smiling ever since. My biggest challenge is keeping his from jumping and leaping on the hard wood floors!
Haiku's are too fun (they're 5 syllables then 7, then 5 again) and I feel inspired by Landon. Feel free to join me...here's what's on my mind.











Little Landons arm
In a cast, he wonders why?
Jumping on my bed.

No shirt that fits him
He wears smocking all day long
Laughing all the while

God gives us a gift
An un-sinkable spirit
In a tiny frame

Who knows what he'll do
In life, tomorrow, or now
"Just stand back", I say.

The Mrs.

I'm so glad to hear he is doing so good. Isn't it amazing how resilient they are?? My little man constantly inspires me to stop whining and just get over it. :)

He's such a cutie! Glad he's doing well. Being a little guy and having a cast on cannot be fun, but, he looks like he's doing great. :)

What a precious child! I love the little smocked outfits. Once they start wearing khakis and jeans, that's all they'll wear for the rest of their lives. Sadly they grow up soon enough!
