So, presented by Me, here at Come Together Kids,
I present my own, original Seussian masterpiece...
March 2nd is a special day,
A day to celebrate and play,
Dr. Seuss was born, hooray!
I knew something special
had to be done,
I went looking around to
find something fun
My search ended with
the sweet Natalie,
who blogs over at
She made these fun cat hats,
so cute and so clever,
I thought, "I can do that,
they'll be better than ever."
So I got some white chocolate
and some cookies to dip,
"When my kids see these", I thought,
"they'll most certainly flip!"
I was moving along,
had them all in a line,
but the mistake that I made was
not taking my time.
You see, for the next step,
the dipping in red,
I did not follow the directions,
the sweet Natalie said.
Wait for each end to dry?
I don't need to do that!
I'll rush and I'll hurry
with my hats for a cat!
What happens when you rush,
and don't take your time?
Don't make your own mistakes,
you can learn things from mine!
The warm chocolate will spread
and get sort of gloppy,
then instead of cute stripes
you'll have nothing but sloppy.
Yes, that's right, those aren't stripes,
they're not straight, they look dumb,
In fact, you can notice
the print from my thumb!
Then instead of dipping, you think,
"I'll just pipe on a line"
Well, I'm here to tell you,
You'll be wasting your time.
You still won't have stripes,
you won't have a straight line,
but that's what happens,
I tell you, when you don't
take your time.
So you may sit and then grumble,
as you look at your mess,
and think, "Now, I've learned,
that I must try my best."
Don't skip steps, don't rush,
don't hurry, don't run,
Take your time, do things right,
then you'll get the job done.
Now, that lesson, though good,
does not mark the end,
because there's one last
tidbit to tell you, my friend.
The tidbit is this,
it's that children don't mind,
they don't worry, don't care,
if it's not perfect each time.
If there's candy, or chocolate,
or anything sweet,
they'll smile and be happy
and be ready to eat.
That's right, there's my children,
so precious and dear,
when they saw my failed cookies,
they just let out a cheer.
They smiled, they were thrilled,
they ate them with glee.
So my story, filled with failures,
still ends happily!
Funny! I almost made those, and I am pretty sure mine would have turned out like yours. I definitely wouldn't have waited. lol
ReplyDeleteCute, I kinda like them a little misshapen:)
ReplyDeleteYay, what a lovely treat for your children and tribute to Dr.Seuss.
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to see that yours aren't perfect makes you more real to us readers! My stuff never turns out like the picture or as I imagine.
Oh my gosh, that is SO funny! I do that pretty much every day! "I can TOTALLY do that!" And end up giving up or throwing it away ten minutes later. So glad I'm not alone! And the rhyming is hysterical! I was seriously dying laughing through this post! LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!!
ReplyDeleteI seriously have tears running down my face, I'm giggling so hard! I LOVE this post!!! You are such a fabulous mom! I wish we lived closer, I think we'd just hit it off!! Seriously, you are just too, too much!!!
ReplyDeleteLove this post!!!! Just too cute!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love your rhyme! Fantastic post!
ReplyDeleteThis is the best post EVER. Wanted to let you know that I gave you the Versatile Blogger Award.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.herecomesthesun-kelly.blogspot.com/2012/03/versatile-blogger-award.html
HA!!! Laura, this post made my laugh out loud!! :-) Thanks so much for sharing! xoxo
ReplyDeleteComing over from A Turtle's life for me-- and I LOVE this post- cracking up- you are an awesome mom just by the sounds of it! I am a new follower and can't wait to laugh some more with you! Love your sweet messy hats- and your kids did too! So Good Job Mom! :)
ReplyDeleteLove, love, LOVE! this post. I laughed throughout it while reading your rhymes. I have definitely had moments like this. Thanks so much for sharing it.
ReplyDeleteThe same happened with me and out banana and strawberry hats. The kids still ate them and had a great time!
ReplyDeletethis was the best post today!! great:)
ReplyDeleteSo clever! Dr. Seuss would be proud :) I need to practice more patience, too...especially if I want my kids to be patient! Thanks for making me laugh :)
ReplyDeleteThat was great! You should make a little book from this post!
ReplyDelete1. That is totally something I would do!!! And probably still do after reading this!! Ha, I'm making those tomorrow! Let's hope I slow down. 2. The part about the kids not minding -- made my eyes water. It's so true and so sweet! Thanks for posting.
ReplyDeleteThe best part of this, besides the great rhyming, is that you photographed your fail anyway. I am pretty sure I would have ditched the camera and thrown up my hands in frustration, let the kids come have at and walked away from the mess. You are awesome and funny!
ReplyDeleteawesomely funny!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis post is a riot
ReplyDeleteI grinned ear to ear
How your little cat's hats
Turned out so dear!
Wonderful, wonderful post. Bravo!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this post!
ReplyDeleteI love that you shared your fail...I think it's great when people are honest and share mishaps. I found you on TT&J. I'd love to have you share this for Fun Stuff Fridays at Toys In The Dryer. http://www.toysinthedryer.com/2012/03/fun-stuff-fridays-13.html
ReplyDeleteGoodness! What a cute post - I smiled the whole way through. How LONG did it take you to do an entire rhyming post? Brilliant!
ReplyDeleteOh, thank you so much everyone! I'm so glad you all liked it. To answer your question, Karissa, it probably took an hour or so, but I'd just work on it a little at a time as I thought up another verse. :)
ReplyDeleteYou are hilarious, I love that you turned it into a story. :o)
ReplyDeleteI loved how you turned your fail into a neat poem ala Dr. Seuss. I have no patience either, so I am sure mine would have looked just as bad. Isn't it great though that kids don't mind!
ReplyDeleteaw so fun, and I love your attitude, too cute!
ReplyDeleteLove your post. You have such a great attitude.
ReplyDeleteThese are so cute! We are so glad that you linked up to "Strut Your Stuff Saturday." Hope you'll be back next week! -The Sisters
ReplyDeleteI LOVE THIS POST! So adorable the way you wrote it! I had so much fun reading this!!
ReplyDeleteIn fact I had to share it on my Facebook page for my blog, TheBetterNester.com :) you can see it here if you wish. https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Better-Nester/191001414307997
ReplyDeleteI love when other people show their "craft fails" bc it makes me feel normal! I love the way your worded this post! Thanks for sharing! :)
ReplyDeleteI love when people are brave enough to share craft fails, it makes us feel so human! Mine would've turned out worse than yours I'm sure :) The kids loved these anyway, and that's what counts. Very clever rhyming the post too!
ReplyDeleteI saw this posted at Tip Junkie and loved it, and I'd be happy if you'd come link it up at my *Get Creative* party this week, even if it was a fail, it's precious! Feel free to link up any other goodies you have as well!

ReplyDeleteBusiness studies are unquestionably the most well-known and sought-after courses on the planet. However this also means that there are are a lot of pupils and there are a lot of problems. The main difficulties we're discussing are those concerning assignment writing. Business courses necessitate a great deal of assignment writing, and these projects come in a variety of formats. We decided to provide offer Business Law Assignment Help to students after understanding the problems they experience when producing academic papers. Most students submit subpar papers and receive poor grades as a result of their weak writing abilities and lack of information.
