Lol those naughty boys. This made me smile and laugh. Great write.

[Joyce S. Greene]

Thanks for leaving such a nice comment. Children are a blessing and I guess a centerfold wasn't the worst thing I could have found under his bed, but I was lucky, and I think it was. Have a very nice evening.

[Poetic Beauty]

yes there are much worse things that could have been under that bed.

[wordwarrior]

Haha, this made me smile and giggle Joyce! Ahh youth, what a time(not that centrefolds were ever my thing )
Enjoyed this.

[Joyce S. Greene]

Sorry it's taken so long to get back to you, but I got up a little later than usual this morning and had to rush to work. Thanks very much for the nice comment. It means a lot to me.

[Rita L. Sev]

Ah - the stuff of adolescence... A wink on the page, this - well done, Joyce!

[Joyce S. Greene]

Thanks, Rita. Wordman just asked about the uneaten food I found, and luckily there wasn't any. (I guess I did find some dirty plates, though.) So you have to be grateful for small favors. Thanks for leaving your thoughts behind. They mean a lot to me.

So now, Joyce, we exchange smiles and giggles, and there's no better introduction. Love the core of this,it's certainly forewarning a would be mother! What a logic you have tucked inside those laughs, great words, great meter too!

[Joyce S. Greene]

Thank you, Emma. It's nice to meet you. I enjoyed the write of yours i read today and am looking forward to reading many more. Have a very nice evening.

[wordman]

well at least there was no un eaten food or wrappers hope he had good taste with the centerfold
and home work blah

[Joyce S. Greene]

What is good taste with a centerfold, Ron? lol Guess men have never seen one they didn't like, but as for me, I can definitely take 'em or leave 'em - perferably the latter. You're right about the food - that could be an even bigger problem than the other two. Thanks for dropping by to leave your thoughts, Ron. They tell me how it is from the masculine perspective and that is very useful information. :)

[wordman]

joyce I wouldn't be concerned its just part of life we all go through as a child and that's where it should stay a curious child Ron well I need about 4 more reviews and I will get a badge and I need to give about 6 more and I can graduate lol

[Joyce S. Greene]

I'm laughing too, Ron. I'll pitch in to help. You're a very good friend of mine!

[Angi]

Ha! I don't go poking under my son's bed anymore. Once burned and all that, you know. Angi~

[Joyce S. Greene]

Probably very wise on your part, though you don't want to leave yourself open for an even bigger surprise down the road. :) Thanks for leaving your thoughts behind, Angi. I appreciate them very much.

[Pryde Foltz]

Don't go looking where demon's and devil-advocates hide. Nice write.

[Joyce S. Greene]

Don't know which would be a worse find, Pryde. Thanks for leaving another of your very apropos comments behind. I am smiling very wide. :D

[Travis Gibson (poetic h..]

I remember those days. Well done.

[Joyce S. Greene]

Thank you for stopping by to leave your nice thoughts behind. I really appreciate it.

[Travis Gibson (poetic heroics)]

It was my pleasure.

[Lydia Shutter]

I remember this from our other poetry site. I loved it because I can relate so well. What to be upset about? The unfinished homework or the centerfold? Having sons is quite the experience! Well written, Joyce. Lydi**

[Joyce S. Greene]

Thanks, Lydi. It is but one you never forget. Do you wish yours was still young enough so you could clean his room again? I do.

[Lydia Shutter]

NO NO 1000 times NO! :)

[Joyce S. Greene]

You have me grinning now, I thought for sure you'd love to have another guy around to clean up after. :)

[Kelly A. Brown]

Very funny and cute! :D Sounds like a typical boy haha.

[Joyce S. Greene]

Thank you for leaving behind such a nice comment, Kelly. Yes, he was a typical boy many years ago and how I miss that boy!
