A chapter in the book Dear Lexi

Kindred Hearts

by Rdfrdmom2



Background
This book is dedicated to my first grandchild. It is meant to not only chronicle my thoughts as she grows but to also share stories about her mom and dad. Of course, it is a grandmother's prerogative to add advice and snippets of wisdom now and then.

This morning, I was sharing with friends at an elementary school how Lexi and I often "dance" after I've burped her. This led into a discussion of how one of my friends had adopted twins about 13 months ago. Just before I left to go do math Standards of Learning tutoring in my daughter's school (and classroom), my friend commented, "Babies rock." I just grinned and replied, "Yes, they do." Her comment has played in my head all day, finally resulting in the above haiku/senryu. I truly don't have a clue exactly how to distinguish one from the other so I try not to label them when I can avoid it. A special thanks to Carolisa for her artwork. It was the closest I could get to the image of "dancing hearts". Thanks for reading.
