Sawyer is getting his exercise in this poem which, you, his Grandma seems to be letting him know that he is on his own with this feat......Enjoyed the read with a wonderful picture that coincides.

His first ladder adventure? It never was a talent of mine. I would be so dizzy by the second rung I'd be in a panic. Sawyer a future fireman perhaps? Have a great weekend, my friend~Debbie

'Reality Check' is extremely well-written. Short, succinct and very much to the point. It was a pleasure to review this talented poet's work.

Hiya Brooke! great to catch ya... I love anything with a superman theme- I saw a joke the other day that said the reason Superman isn't around anymore is because we took away all the phone booths! lol
Sweet write, sweet boy and sweet writer- as always, Diana

I wanted to do a flip on the monkey bars and I got stuck. My friend came to try to help me but there was no way she could help me and I ended up falling on my butt. I know this predicament all too well.

I love your beautiful poem. Life truly is a matter of taking one step at a time, with determination to meet our goals, then starting the cycle again. You capture this so well in your poems.
I think of sweet Maureen these days. This sums up her will to live perfectly.

Hi Brooke Such a cute little poem with a message in the words. It's wonderful that you have pictures of the milesones in your young grandson's life and wonderful for them that you are creating poems to go match up. I'm having a busy family weekend, my three sons and their families are visiting from Auckland (two hours from we have been living for the past eight years.) This time last year I was visiting my daughter and her family in Perth. (eight hours flight from Auckland)
Have a nice weekend Cheers Gaye
