Mason’s 12th Birthday
The windy month of March brought Mason to the earth-His big wide eyes and white blond hair was such a happy birth!
He loved to snuggle with grandma, his mom and his aunt Jill,His dad would rock 100 times to get him sleeping still.
He loved his binky, walker too- his grin was big and wide,He “Rocked around the Clock” with Jill and danced from side to side.
He jumped on bed and couch and chair and played with all the cats,He loved to take a bubble bath and put on daddy’s hats.
McDonalds was his favorite place to go and eat some fries-A giant monkey in a lot brought terror to his eyes.
When just a tot he learned to swim and kicked his legs with glee,The pool became his second home his skin a bumble bee.
A sister then a brother came – they loved to laugh and play-A broken leg was put in place and dragged throughout the day!
In Colorado he started school but wandered and was lost-When finally found he flashed a grin and asked what is the cost?
He grew and grew and ate and ate but “berries” always banned-He loved to swim and golf with Troy and always got so tanned.
He liked to bowl with cousin Jake and grandma laughing on-The slippy slide with water splash he glided on the lawn.
His Uncle Kelly liked to tease but Mason came to know If Jake and he could whine enough he’d take them to a show!
He learned to swim just like a fish and win the lengthy race-His friends at school and church alike all call out “Hey, Mace!”
Football, basketball and golf and sports to fill his days. This year he really buckles down and sees that homework pays!
The braces put upon his teeth are making him quite cuteThe girls are looking at him now, he’s handsome in his suit.
Today he turns the age of twelve with awesome things to come,He will receive the priesthood soon, an honor to be won.
My grandson is a special guy and blessed with many thingsOne day a mission he will serve and sharing he will bring. A Happy Birthday Mason-Man, this grandma loves you soBe faithful, true and trust in God and then you’ll always know

you are so good at writing these poems mom I love you!
This is amazing, as always. We really need to get all of your poems of the grandkids together and put them in a book. Each family could have a copy. That would be a real treasure for everyone.
