Bless their hearts--the terrible twos, <br />What a trying of one's experience it can bring. A "No" command is usually greeted tactfully, <br />With a sweet smile and a repeat performance. Likes and dislikes in food and drink are known, <br />While a change of diet may be tossed on the floor. Be careful what you say around baby boy, <br />Unless you want it repeated when guests arrive. Winnie the Pooh and Sesame Street please for awhile, <br />But a mechanical toy or noisemaker satisfies more. A Rock-A-By song last year would bring sound sleep. <br />While reading him book after book puts baby sitter to sleep. Grandparents love them when they are two, <br />And really celebrate when baby sitting is through.<br /><br />Donald O. Williams<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-terrible-twos/
