Little Miss prim and proper,
Serious to the bone;
My oldest daughter, Mary,
Her skills, she did hone.

She worked her way through college,
As her children grew;
She never gave up on herself,
And now my dream has come true.

Aunt Mimi to those who love her,
She's strict but always fair;
All the children love her,
Because they know she cares.

Puzzles, lighthouses and cross stitch,
Are hobbies at which she plays;
Job, family, teaching and fun,
Are what fills up her days.

She's grown to be a lady great,
Just as was her namesake;
She loves warm weather and sun,
And boating on the lake.

If you think she makes me proud,
I'd say you're mighty right;
I thank the Lord for this daughter,
Each and every night.

Mary is my oldest daughter. She is married to Grover. Six children keep her running a lot of the time. Mary teaches evening classes for those working towards a degree. Of the four children I have, Mary is the caretaker. All her nieces and nephews love to go stay with her.
