no you cant

no you cant

A Poem by newyearnorma

you always make me laugh with the stuff you ask

 

no you cant have candy at 7 in the morning

no brownies dont count as breakfast

oh my god you cant have the keys to the car

no i dont think you've gotten all you need out of school

no midnight is not a good bedtime

no i dont think you are ready to go out and see the world

 

i understand you have a free spirit but you are only 6

but even as i tell you no and try to be firm, i cant help but smiling

My son said to me, "I can't wait to go to college." I said, "Let's try to get through the first day of kindergarten without incident." This was our conversation in September over breakfast...true story! Thanks for the giggles; as you can imagine, I can totally relate!
