ROFLMAO!

Oh, my God, Jan, you are a riot.

Well, clearing sinuses does happen. Purging tummies as well. That's one part of being a parent/Nana I do NOT miss.

Yet you make it funny!

Hugs,
Gayle

Oh you are too funny with this one. I am sitting here remembering those times of changing my sons diaper. And yes must get that salt water. You made me laugh and you made me think of days past. Love it!!

Blessings

    thanks, Magics -- Lexi needs to know there were a few moments that were a little less than magical -- yet, we make jokes all the time about her stinky diapers which is how this came about in the first place -- love, jan

Jan, I am laughing - hard. LOL
What a great concrete image - fantastic sensory appeal, if appeal is the right word. LOL
I love my children dearly but never found anything endearing about diaper changing. Love your sense of humor, and some day I bet this one will get lots of laughs from Lexi :-) Brooke

Ewww!

I would think a diaper would be just the thing to make sinuses shut down permanently. Be worse than kitty litter and that gets pretty bad when Fribs has been there ...

Louise :D

Five stars for bravery!!! You need a strong stomach and no sense of smell to deal with nappies (diapers). I think a little too much information and Lexi may well feel most indignant that Gran wrote about such a thing! In the end she'll see that the 'bottom' line is actually very amusing. Much love, Jan. Keep us smiling.x moyramouse

Okay Jan, you need a break!!! When I first saw this title I said, "Hmmmm what a title. Ugh." Then I opened your write and saw the first line and new you needed help. LOL. Girl, first diapers is three syllables. di-a-pers. NOw sure, some say "di-pers" LOL but that's slang and guess you'd have to slang-spell it to be right. LOL. I cannot believe I am so getting into tiis review about this subject/subjects. LOL, only you sweet poet, only you!!!

    First, you have to understand what kind of day it's been; second, there have to be a few things in Lexi's book to make her groan; third, down south, diapers is a two syllable word (LOL); and, fourth, I only claimed it to be a short poem, nothing else -- love, jan

    LOL okay. I just love you and your humor and this one is full of it. MUAHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

Jan,
I enjoyed the satire in your humorous short poem. A smelly diaper will open up a dead man's sinuses. Excellent use of alliteration and humor. Have a blessed day.
Melissa.

Something we've probably all thought about at one time or another. This is really an original thought for a poem, and quite clever, at that. Good luck with those sinuses, and thanks for the chuckle!
