Why God Made Little Boys

When I was a new baby my godmother Brenda Conforti gave me a plaque with a poem of "Why God Made Little Girls". I had it hanging in my room even at my birchview house...so I thought I would dedicate this entry to Mitchell:
Why God Made Little Boys
God made a world out of his dreams
Of wondrous mountains, oceans and streams,
Prairies and plains and wooded land,
Then paused and thought,
"I need someone to stand
On top of the mountains, to conquer the seas,
Explore the plains and climb the trees
Someone to start out small and grow,
Sturdy, strong like a tree and so...
He created boys, full of spirit and fun,
With dirty faces, banged up chins
With courageous hearts and boyish grins."
When He had completed the task He'd begun
He secretly said "That's a job well done."
...and to the future girls that will be coming into our lives (miss Rice-Swing) here is the poem that I remember well.
Why God Made Little GirlsGod made the world with its towering trees,
majestic mountains and restless seas
then paused and said, "It needs one more thing."
Someone to laugh and dance and sing,
to walk in the woods and gather flowers,
to commune with nature in quiet hours.
So God made little girls with laughing eyes and bouncing curls,
with joyful hearts, and beautiful smiles, enchanting ways and feminine wiles.
And when He'd completed the task He'd begun,
He was pleased and proud of the job He'd done.
I know I know these are not very politically correct...but I think they are cute! xo
