The Year in Review

Our version of "Chicken Soup with Rice"

In January its lots of fun
to live in AZ in the sun.
In Mom & Dad’s house, we did reside
Enjoy it once, enjoy it twice
Enjoying friends & family was so nice.

In February Callin started
crawling, every minute he darted
Into this and that he was
Work load doubled, first tooth bubbled
Eight month olds can sure get in trouble!

In March and April Dougie traveled
It was Baylor Medicine he dazzled
Ophthalmology tech he was employed
Non-stop eye balls this, corneas that
Those who listened were quite annoyed.

In May we headed to Cedar City
Doug and Cal were the cheering committee
As Annie dressed up in black robes
Graduation, Celebration
For a Masters in Education

In June our baby boy turned one.
On his feet, he could not be outrun.
The trip to Rocky Point was great
Lots of sand, sunsets grand
Soon time with family will be in high demand.

In July we sailed away
Doug thoroughly enjoyed the buffet
33 Smoots were found aboard.
Then we sailed some more, to a shore
Found just outside the Houston door.

In August & September it started looking hazy
Annie found single parenting quite crazy.
Doug, well he’s in he-e-ven.
Anatomy, YES! Histology- Fun!
When did you say, school will be done?

October passed with quite some speed.
Annie still makes time to read.
Teaching preschool, is lots of fun!
Miracles, we were blessed.
Callin Douglas is the best!

In November it will be
A celebration with friends and family
Blessings in abundance – wow!
Grateful once, grateful twice.
Grateful for our life with spice.

In December we will go away
To Africa for a stay
Papa, Grammy & Lindy we will greet
Elephants- wow, real lions – holy cow.
Are you sure its time to come home now?

Merry once, Merry twice

All seasons of the year are nice

For living a life full of spice!
