Over at The Spohr’s are Multiplying they are having a Limerick contest in honor of St. Patrick’s Day. Limericks are fun – and sort of easy – to write, so I thought I’d take a shot at it. Here is what I entered:
There once was a family of nine
Who thought that everything was fine
Until Mom played a trick
When she peed on a stick
What’s that? A positive line!

Months passed and arrived baby Andy
Who smelled better than the sweetest of candy
Siblings loved him a lot
Their complaints they forgot
Until Mom announced another dandy…

That’s right – Baby Nine’s on the way!
She will add to their joy everyday.
It’s a fact that eleven
Had become their new Heaven
Once Aria joined the family – hurray!

Is this family complete now, or what?
Do the parents need a kick in the butt?
They must be crazy, it’s been said
Find a hobby outside of bed!
Nine children will surely drive you nuts!

Mom has to laugh at that silly thought
Honestly, nine does not seem like a lot
When you add one at a time
Really, everything is fine…
Afterall, Octomom I am NOT!

Wanna hear one of mine?
There once was a man named Matt,
Who stood on some juicy cow pat,
He tried to break free,
From this sticky cow pee,
But he heard another big ‘SPLAT!’

Okay, that was hysterical! Very talented! When you said lymeric, I was all “there once was a man from Nantucket” and then I was all – no, someone already wrote that! Plus, not exactly appropriate for a mommy blog! Hehe Happy St. Patty’s day!
