I usually ask for two lollipops, please.
Today, I wanted to be a kid again.
Today, I wanted to be responsibility-free.
Today, I didn’t want to worry about what to feed my family for dinner.
Today, I didn’t want to worry about whether my youngest was wearing his real underwear or his imaginary ones.
Today, I didn’t want to plan out my son’s school work plan.
Today, I didn’t want to organize and coordinate all I had on my plate.
Today, I asked for three lollipops, please, at the bank drive-thru lane.
One for my oldest. One for my youngest. One for me.
For just a few minutes I was responsibility-free.
My lollipop was yellow.
Yay for lollipops!
I was being silly when I got my pertussis shot earlier this year, and asked if I got a lolly for being a good girl. The nurse chuckled and handed me one. Mine was green 🙂
Yeah for lollipops. May you always ask for three.
Six. I always get six. My husband gets one too 🙂 I like purple best. I really like your poem.
Love.
How many? As many as you need to get you through that particular day!
Didn’t know they still did that, but I will be sure to ask next time. Any flavor will do.. Love your use of the list pomem.
Love it! This cracked me up “Today, I didn’t want to worry about whether my youngest was wearing his real underwear or his imaginary ones.” especially since I had to inform my sister today that her 6 year old daughter was also wearing imaginary underwear.
Make my sucker yellow! BTW-My preteen (read: hormonal) daughter wears imaginary deodorant these days. Must be something going around!
