'HOLIDAYS ARE HERE, AGAIN?????
2002
WORDS BY PATTI ANN BORGREN
WRITTEN IN TUNE TO MAMA'S AND PAPA'S 'CREEQUE ALLEY'
DEDICATED TO THE MEMORY OF MY BELOVED ALLIE
YOU WILL ALWAYS BE IN MY HEART AND SOUL
HOLIDAYS ARE HERE AGAIN TIME TO ANNOY FAMILY AND FRIENDS
WITH MY LATEST NEWS DELIGHT IT'S A HEADLINE!
WORDS MAY BE SILLY, AT TIMES THEY'RE A DILLY
JUST WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW I AM THINKING OF YOU ALL THE TIME
WANTED TO REACH OUT AND TOUCH SOMEONE NEW
FREE MOMENTS LIKE THIS ARE BUT A FEW
HOPE TO GIVE YOU A SMILE, GOSH HAVEN'T HEARD FROM YOU IN AWHILE
WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW WHAT THE BORGRENS HAVE BEEN DOIN' LIFE CAN BE A LITTLE CRAZY
LOOKING FOR A COLLIE PUPPY NAMED SADIE AND AN OLD ENGLISH PUP NAMED GRACIE
ZACH IS A JUNIOR, IN HIGH SCHOOL ALWAYS A WINNER WHEN IT COMES TO FOLLOWING OUR SET RULES, NOT!
SMART AS CAN BE, FLUENT IN SPANISH SI', SI'
HANDSOME AND SMART AT TIMES HIS RESPONSE CAN BE A TAD TART
WORKS PART TIME FRYING BURGERS AT SONIC DRIVEIN
WANTS A CAR/CAR/CAR/CAR/CAR THE PHRASE IS WEARING THIN( THE LITTLE SNOT )
HEY BABY YOU CAN DRIVE MY CAR, NOT
BRAINWASHED WITH SPORTS STATS, WATCH OUT WHEN HE SWINGS A BAT AND SANTA COMES BUT ONCE A YEAR
MAMA'S BANKBOOK SAYS A BIGWHEEL FOR ZACH A WACKA IS ALL WE CAN AFFORD FOR CHRISTMAS I FEAR
CAN'T BE TOO RACY AND HAS ANYONE SEEN MY COLLIE AND OLD ENGLISH PUPPIES NAMED SADIE AND GRACIE?
MANDI IS A FRESHMAN AT O'FALLON TOWNSHIP
ZACHARY TOTALLY FLIPPED
WHEN HE REALIZED HIS LITTLE SISTER WAS GOING TO HIS SCHOOL
GETTING SMARTER AND TALLER EVERYDAY BUT YOU'RE STILL TOO YOUNG TO DATE DADDY'S GIRL RULES
PRETTY AS CAN BE AND GROWING UP TOO FAST
THE LITTLE GIRL PERSONA IS A FADING IMAGE FROM THE PAST
BUT WHAT IS PENELOPE THE DINOSAUR ALL ABOUT
SYRO/SPYRO/SPYRO AND LISTENING TO PINK MAKES ME WANT TO SHOUT
RELAX IT COULD BE KELLY OSBOURNE….
HAS BECOME MOM'S HELPER AND BEST FRIEND, THE MANDERS HAS BECOME ONE ON WHOM TO DEPEND
HAS CRUSHES ON BOYS AND CARS THAT GO VAROOM
HEAVENS TO BETSY AT WHAT AGE DO THEY ACTUALLY CLEAN THEIR ROOM?
SOMETIMES WHEN IT SUITS HER MANDI CAN BE A LADY
CAN'T WAIT TO MEET MY NEW BABIES GRACIE AND SADIE
KATERINA IS LEAVING AGE FOUR, HURRY UP MOM TIME TO GO OUT THE DOOR
OFF TO SCHOOL TO SEE ALL HER PALS AND TEACHERS WHERE DID THE BABY YEARS GO TO?
JOEY OF BLUES CLUES HAS REPLACED STEVE IN HER HEART
BACKPACK CHECK AND ALL THE $$$ BACK TO SCHOOL FEATURES
PHYSICAL THERAPY TWICE A WEEK RULES
KATERINA'S HAPPY OUTLOOK ON LIFE ARE HER #1 LEARNING TOOLS
WALKING BY HERSELF IS HER DAILY GOAL, NO LONGER WOBBLY LIKE A NEWBORN FOAL
CUDDLY AND SWEET, MAKING HER GO TO BED BEFORE TEN P.M. I GIVE UP IN DEFEAT
KATERINA NICOLE YOU WIN
AS A DAUGHTER YOU ARE ALWAYS A 10!
TWO MORE PUPPIES A COLLIE AND OLD ENGLISH WE'LL GIVE IT A WHIRL
BRING THEM ON HOME SADIE AND GRACIE PUPPY GIRLS
SHANA IS FACING THREE, PRETTY BROWN EYES ALWAYS SMILING UP TO GOSH KNOWS WHAT NOW
DANCES TO SHIRLEY TEMPLE WEARING A HOT PINK PUNK ROCK WIG, BABY TAKE A BOW
PLAYS HER GUITAR TO ROCK AND ROLL, SHANA MARIE LOOK AT HER GO!
LOVES TO EAT, TAKING OFF HER RED PATENT LEATHER SHOES THESE DAYS MY GOSH SHE HAS THEM GLUED TO HER FEET!!!!
ALWAYS A HELPER AND HAPPY AS CAN BE, DORA THE EXPLORER AND VISITNG MICKEY'S HOUSE SHE YEARNS TO SEE
LOVES HER FAMILY A DADDY'S GIRL TO THE MAX, IN INTELLIGENCE THIS CHILD WILL NEVER LACK
SHANA MARIE, THE CHILD PROOFING PINUP GIRL FOREVER MORE
DON'T EAT THE DOGFOOD OFF THE FLOOR!
LOST MY ALLIE BUT I REFUSE TO GET SPACY
I'LL OVERCOME MY GRIEF WITH THE LOVE OF SADIE AND GRACIE
JIM IS HANDSOME AS EVER, AND OUTSMARTS MY CLEVER
NEVER CAN PULL THE WOOL OVER HIS GORGEOUS GREEN EYES BUT HE ALWAYS GIVES IN
WORKS ALL DAY AS A MAJOR, AT NIGHT MR. MOM I'LL WAGER
THE BEST WIFE A WOMAN COULD ASK FOR STRAIGHT
HIS CUDDLES AND SHOULDER TO CRY ON I NEVER HAVE TO WAIT
GOING ON TWELVE YEARS TOGETHER AND THEY SAID IT WOULD NEVER LAST
2002 BEHIND US WITH BRIGHT HAPPY FUTURES AHEAD, WE WON'T DWELL ON ALLIE AND THE PAST
STILL SMILE WHEN I THINK OF THE DAY WE MET, HAVE NEVER HAD A SECOND OF REGRET
WILL STILL BE THERE FOR ME WHEN I AM 80, STILL WAITING FOR MY BALLS OF FLUFF NAMED GRACIE AND SADIE
PLEASE, PLEASE FROM THE LITTLE GIRL TO WHOM YOU CAN NEVER SAY NO
MY DARLING JIMMY I STILL LOVE YOU SO
PATTI TRIED WORKING FULL TIME BUT DAYCARE COSTS DIDN'T LEAVE US A DIME
PLUS I MISSED MY BABIES HUMAN AND FELINE PLUS MOLLIE THE COLLIE WAY TOO MUCH
HOUSE BECAME A MESS, LACK OF TIME AND MAMA LOVE I GUESS
(THAT IS MY STORY AND I AM STICKING TO IT)
PLUS MY WRITING WAS SHELVED AND I LOST INTEREST AS SUCH
THINGS HAVE GOTTEN BETTER AS I WRITE THIS LETTER
MOTHERHOOD IS MY LIFE CHOSEN CAREER, LOVE BEING NEEDED, IT'S THE NOT THAT I FEAR
WOULD I ADOPT AGAIN SURE BUT LACK OF FINANCES IS MY PERMANENT BEST FRIEND
PROUD TO BE A MAMA, OWNED BY MY PETS AND MAJOR JIMMY'S GIRL
BETTER FINISH THIS SONNET BEFORE ONE HAS THE NEED TO HURL
GOING TO ENJOY MY FAMILY AS A MAKEUP FREE ALL SWEATS SKIP THE PEARLS LADY
SO NOW I GET TO FINALLY BRING HOME MY BELOVED OLD ENGLISH AND COLLIE PUPPIES MS. GRACIE AND SADIE
HAPPY HEALTHY HOLIDAYS WITH LOVE AND JOY MISS YOU ALL SO MUCH
REMINDING YOU THAT
