Dragon Birthday

How does a Mama throw

a small dragon bash?

Does she work really hard,

and then fall down and crash?

She might set a nice table

with napkins a light,

and make yummy bread dragons

whose heads we can bite.

She may find a nice dragon

on the table to sit,

but don't touch her eggs,

or she'll throw quite a fit.

Her chef of a husband may

whip up a cake,

but the Dragon Fire Juice,

she surely can make.

She may sew up a shirt

emblazoned with fire,

and send treats to school,

her daughter's friends will admire.

When party time comes, Mama will gather her friends,

and they'll all stay up late tying up the loose ends.

After the fun is all finished, Mama'll tickle K's gizzard:

"Happy birthday. 

Happy birthday, little fire breathing lizard."

This post was inspired by some

of our favorite books.

And it's only a year late! My daughter turned seven last year. I searched and searched for the pictures, but thought I'd lost them. As I searched through old photos, looking for pictures of Sushi for my last post, I found them - yippee!
