Thanx for the read and review, Melissa -- guess I was feeling a bit nostalgic with all my 'big' boys coming home for the holidays. ;) ;) Sending special Christmas-Season wishes to you and yours -- take care! ;) ;)
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written Lune poem. When we lay the deep and strong foundation in our children they will not disappoint us and they will remember our patience and attention forever.

Comment from Dean Kuch
Yes indeed, Yvette.
They most certainly are.
Your Lune is not the least bit looney at all.
In fact, it's kinda cute.
Good luck in the contest.

Excellent and filled with heart. I know you have all boys and this could be one of yours very easily with your husband. How sweet is this?
All my best to you in the contest. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas with your family making new memories.

Yvette,
The picture with father and son is priceless. Your three-liner is most appropriate for the same. Your background color complements their construction hats.
Good luck In this competition.

Comment from Cindy McIntyre
I LOVE this little message. How compelling and true. Investing time to make memories is well worth the "construction." Well-written and nicely formatted Lune (5-3-5). Your word choices and photo are perfection. I hope you win the contest. Good luck!!! :)

Comment from jmshumate
I like this very much. You say a lot in so few words. The building of a boy into a man takes time patience and sacrifice of time and most of all love. This poem teaches a lesson to all, fathers, mothers, mentors. Thank you for sharing this.
