Loving library memories
precious experience
several mothers for
childrens story hour
@ public library
endearing story
Is what I heard
A mother told a story for
10-15 minutes. I embellished w my Personal info.

A
Mother
After a long loving
Day with her children
Of meals
bath time
Quality
Loving interaction
Put her children to bed
6:30 - 7:00 p m
On the 2nd floor
She went down to spend
Quality time
with her husband
Within minutes she heard...
Mom ...
Yes,
"I need u!"
They said,
She climbed
up the stairs and one said
1 Can I please have my blankie
Just one more night pls?
I promise I'll stop sucking my finger & hiding it under the blanket soon But not today
I'll throw my blanket in the trash tomorrow
2nd trip up the steps etc.
2 can I have a drink of water!
3 can the dog sleep w me
4 I got to go pee
5 dad can I have a hug
6 can I pet the cat
7 can't sleep
8 Can I have a snack I'm hungry
Apple banana cookie crackers
Brownie crumbs Slice of cheese juice Pie Cake Ice cream
Just a stick of gum?
A life saver
No u already brushed your teeth
Do u want cavities?
I gotta go again
Then she again hears
Mom ...
can I have a kiss goodnight?
Baby needs diaper change
She goes up the steps
To their bedroom & says,
"It's Dads time
to have my time
If u don't stop
I'm going to give
U a spanking
pls stop"
10 minutes later
The parents
r on lovey dovey mode
Mom... pls I need u
She goes up the steps tired
She says,
"I'm going to give u a spanking
If you don't quit calling me!
It's dads turn now
You've had my time all day!"
"But mom
all I wanted to say
Was
I love you mom!
I want you
Need you
Thanks for being my mom
Thanks for loving me
Good meals
Good play time
Great outings
Good cookies
Yummy dinner
Great breakfast
Yummy lunches
Great fruit
Thanx mom
It was a great Christmas!"

Tears came to her eyes for
Threatening him with a spanking
For he only was guilty
Of wanting to be near her
his mom
So natural to a child
The End

excuses kids have that you can do for story time another day:
Oh I forgot I need u to sign a permission Slip
I need 30 cupcakes for school
(15 w pink frosting 15 w blue)
And 30 brownies that's all
Just a total of 60
It will only take 10 minutes
For tomorrow
Uh oh I didn't finish my homework
I'm sick w a fever
I need a note for being sick
To go back to school
I need milk money
Lunch money
Can u read me a story?
No that's not how the story goes
Again Again!
Can I Skype dad I miss him?
Can we pray? sing?
We didn't get down on our knees
And fold our hands in prayer
That's the important part mom
Mom please sing me my favorite hymn from church
That one that goes
Father Mother God
Loving me
Guard me when I sleep
Guide my little feet
Up to thee...
Then a higher octave etc.
