A Stream of Consciousness Poem in the Style of my One and a Half Year Old Baby

There’s so much to love about this post, Jenna. It’s a running catalogue of your little one, and I can picture all of the different places and ways these words are uttered. And the ending of “Me…Baby…Mama…”
CHARMING and LOVELY. =))

This is adorable! I can’t wait for the day my son starts to spew out such poetry.

What a wonderful way to slice your day with your little one. I love the random interjections of “uh-oh!” They are so evocative of that specific age. I worry about the announcement of “garbage” in the middle. That sounds ominous. A beautiful ending to the stream-of-consciousness poem.

So good, my 20 month old grandson says more or less the same although we don’t use the word diaper over here in Australia. Never thought to make it into a poem!
