ODE TO PETE

Yesterday, you lost your second tooth...

It made me think, "Geez, you're cute!"

You like to dress-up; Spidey, Jedi, Batman.

You push my buttons whenever you can.

Your 6th birthday was in October.

Happy you are when the neighbor, Nick, comes over.

Blueberry-mini-wheats are your favorite by lots.

You help me cook by measuring and getting the pots.

"Bleep" is your newest thing to say,

to edit curse words to my dismay.

Magic tricks you love to do.

You spell all kinds of things until I'm cuckoo.

Loving me, you have a knack.

And I love you to the moon and back.
