'She's so sweet when she's sleeping!'

For all us parents...payback time

When I'm a old lady, I'll live with each kid,
And bring so much happiness...Just as they didn.
I want to pay back all the joy they've provided,
Returning each deed - Oh, they'll be so excited!
When I'm an old lady and live with my kids.

I'll write on the walls, with reds, whites and blues.
I'll bounce on the furniture, wearing my shoes.
I'll drink from teh carton and then leave it out.
I'll stuff all the toilets and Oh, how they'll shout!
When I'm an old lady and live with my kids.

When they're on the phone and just out of reach,
I'll get into things, like sugar and bleach.
They'll snap their fingers and then shake their head.
And when that is done, I'll hide under the bed!
When I'm an old lady and live with my kids.

When they cook dinner and call me to eat,
I'll not eat the green beans or salad or meat.
I'll gag on my spinach, spill milk on the table,
And when tey get angry, I'll run...if I'm able!
When I'm an old lady and live with my kids.

I'll sit close to the tv, through channels I'll click,
I'll cross both my eyes just to see if they'll stick.
I'll take off my socks and throw one away,
And play in the mud till the end of the day!
When I'm an old lady and live with my kids.

And later in bed, I'll lie back and sigh,
And thank God in prayer and then close my eyes.
My kids will look down with a smile slowly creeping,
And say with a smile...'She's so sweet when she's sleeping!'

I got this from Dianne Levy's book titled They Look so lovely when they're asleep. It's not hers but she doesn't know the author. It sounds so true!!!!
