Amanda, Amanda, with hair of fire,
We all know you as a real live wire;
So full of fun and great big smiles,
Your love of life will take you miles.

You love to tease, especially the boys,
You love your brothers' masculine toys;
A tomboy lives within your heart,
But you are tiny, you are smart.

You love your sports and chocolate, too,
Nothing is too active for you;
Your ornery mind is very quick,
But your heart beats love with every tick.

Amanda, Amanda, with hair of fire,
No one will ever call me a liar;
When I say your family loves you so,
And will always love you where ever you go.

Amanda is my granddaughter. Grover is her father and Mary is her stepmother. Amanda loves animals and sometimes seems like a tomboy. She recently got her drivers' permit so the world better watch out now. Amanda has always been active and involved in sports. She even likes fishing.
