When I'm an old lady, I'll live with each kid,
And bring so much happiness...just as they did.
I want to pay back all the joy they've provided.
Returning each deed! Oh, they'll be so excited!
(When I'm an old lady and live with my kids).

I'll write on the wall with reds, whites and blues,
And I'll bounce on the furniture...wearing my shoes.
I'll drink from the carton and then leave it out.
I'll stuff all the toilets and oh, how they'll shout!
(When I'm an old lady and live with my kids).

When they're on the phone and just out of reach,
I'll get into things like sugar and bleach.
Oh, they'll snap their fingers and then shake their head,
And when that is done, I'll hide under the bed!
(When I'm an old lady and live with my kids).

When they cook dinner and call me to eat,
I'll not eat my green beans or salad or meat,
I'll gag on my okra, spill milk on the table,
And when they get angry...I'll run...if I'm able!
(When I'm an old lady and live with my kids).

I'll sit close to the TV, through the channels I'll click,
I'll cross both eyes just to see if they stick.
I'll take off my socks and throw one away,
And play in the mud till the end of the day!
(When I'm an old lady and live with my kids).

And later in bed, I'll lay back and sigh,
I'll thank God in prayer and then close my eyes.
My kids will look down with a smile slowly creeping,
And say with a groan, "She's so sweet when she's sleeping!"

God Bless All Moms and Grandmas Everywhere

Cute!

Aww so cute..

Sweet, but mine said they have picked a home already! lol

I love it. Both my boys have said they will take care of me when I'm an old lady if I am in need. They just haven't said how. lol

That is so cute. Did you write it?

I love this! I've seen it before, but I'm sharing it with my friends again. :thumbup:

I love it,, am. Sending a copy to my kids

Several years ago my Mother made photo albums for my brother and myself. In the front of these albums Mother had attached this poem, it always makes me smile when I read it. Thanks for the reminder. Susan

Thanks for sharing! It is so nicely said. :lol: :lol:

Just last night one of my boys said this... and his reply was he would make sure my other son (his brother) had room for me...lol

I love that. Thanks for the giggle.

That is why I love in a little house!! My son did promise me the west wind of his mansion when he gets one!! LOL

My son promised me a little house in the back of his 'estate' when I get old (an estate that he doesn't have) BUT I would have to share it with his MIL. The Old Folks' Home isn't looking so bad anymore.

cute!

very funny,had a good chuckle.
