Hello Chrissy710
I like your six words of my kids, your kids and the combination saying Our Kids; along with picture and your authors note
Blended families are quite a mixture sometimes and it may take some time to get the blend just right.

This six-word poem, Blended Families, has the correct word count and does the math on how many and to whom go the responsibilities. All are in it together.

In the town where I live there are either one parent families, or alternatively blended familliies Christine, it must be tough raising kids this way, so many things to over come. Well done, great entry, good luck, blessings, Roy

How clever! You repeated the word, "kids" three times and only used different possessive pronouns with them and yet you tell us an important story about how many of today's families are "blended." Well done, Christine!

Hi Christine. Yes that's the way it is nowadays and hopefully a congenial mix. No reason for it not to be joyful and blending. Good luck in the contest. Marilyn

Hi Chrissy,

WOW - you've said a lot in six, simple words.

Very true - so many blended families these days. Must be difficult to get everyone all aligned in their pecking order when families blend.

Your verse flows nicely and the image you've selected to complement your verse works well.

Nothing to suggest improving upon.

Thanks for sharing.

Ha, this is terrific Christine. These blended families are perfect examples of showing how it CAN work if everyone works really hard at it.

Best of luck to you with the Contest Committee. :)

You have made effective use of all six words in this poem that really
says a great deal. If a situation doesn't get past "mine and yours"
to "ours," complete happiness isn't likely.
