Only the middle sister truly knows
The challenges of being two in one:
A mentor to the youngest as she grows,
And scapegoat for the eldest to have fun.
You always know the perfect thing to say
To make us laugh until the point of tears.
You’ve cared for us in each and every way
And brought us so much joy throughout the years.
And neither of us know where we would be
Without you there to make life such a game.
No matter where you stand among us three
We both adore and love you just the same.
So Happy Birthday, Sister Number Two!
Love always, the big sister who loves you!
Happy Birthday to my awesome little sister! Keep on being the amazing person you are! I love you!

The most important man
That a girl will ever know
Is the man who gives her everything
To help her learn and grow.
The most important smile
That a girl will ever see
Is of proud encouragement
For the woman she can be.
The most important words
That a girl will ever hear
Are the first to say she’s beautiful,
Intelligent and dear.
The most important lesson
That a girl will ever learn
Is that he’s the only man
To whom she can always turn.
He loves his daughter dearly,
Gives her everything he can.
And I wouldn’t be this woman
If it weren’t for that man.
I don’t know how to thank him
For the things he always did
To give me the greatest life
Ever since I was a kid.
But I know he’ll always be there
To catch me if I fall.
And of all the men I know,
He’s the greatest one of all.
So thanks for being awesome
And for everything you do!
Happy Father’s Day to you, Dad,
From a daughter who loves you!
Happy Father’s Day to my amazing dad! Thank you for all the love and support you’ve given me my whole life! I love you!

Every time you tease
I can’t help but laugh out loud
To please your humor
Please forgive my tricks
But I just could not resist
Teasing you that way
Tell me if you please
Why I can’t stop smiling now
At the way you tease

Memories, old and new, of
Every life lost among the
Many brave souls who fight for an
Overwhelming love for their country
Remain in our hearts with our
Infinite gratitude for their service.
America remains free thanks to the
Lives of those who defend it!
Don’t forget the sacrifice of those who
Always gave everything for our nation.
Your lives will always be remembered!
Blessings to all you readers who have lost a loved one in military service. Have a peaceful Memorial Day weekend!

All that others see
Contradicts the truest love
Hidden in my heart
Plain dark irises
Conceal the sweet perfection
Only I can see
Wonder to behold
All the beauty I have found
In your lovely eyes
My responses to Ronovan Writes‘ Weekly Haiku Challenge #146: Behold & Eye. I know I’m late again, but I just couldn’t resist this theme either! Thanks for the prompt, Ronovan!

I don’t know how you managed
To put up with me so long,
To endure my moody outbursts
As you taught me right from wrong.
I don’t know how you always
Knew exactly what to say
To help me through my problems
‘Til we made them go away.
I don’t know how you managed
To support me all those years,
To encourage all my dreams
And protect me from my fears.
But I’m thankful that you did it,
For without you there for me,
I could never be the person
That I always hoped to be.
So I thank you for your patience
To stick with me to the end,
And I thank you for your wisdom
As a mentor and a friend.
I thank you for your kindness,
A true blessing from above.
But most of all, I thank you
For your never-ending love.
To be an awesome parent
Is the most challenging task,
Yet you’re still the greatest mother
For whom anyone could ask.
I don’t know how you do it,
But I’m really glad you do.
Happy Mother’s Day to you, Mom!
Love, your daughter who loves you!
Happy Mother’s Day to my awesome mom! Thank you for all the love and support you’ve given me my whole life! I love you!
