Big Kael, King of the Rails!

Big Kael
King of the Rails
Turns five today
So everyone shout "Hooray"!

Can't believe he's already five
That sho ain't no jive
He just keeps growin & growin'
When will he stop? Nobody's knowin'

He made the jump to school
Without looking back
C'est en français (he thinks its cool)
And loves to sport his Cars backpack

And just when we thought that trains were out
They returned even stronger
Now Lightning McQueen & co can be seen to be pout
While Thomas & friends will stick around a little longer

He builds a new track or two every day
With tunnels, twists, turns, and hills
So intricate they blow me away
Who knows, maybe he's developing skills to pay the bills!

He's still got his mad observations powers
And never misses a beat.
Over most kids his age he towers
Yet he's the sweetest you'll ever meet.

Kael loves to laugh & play
And brings joy to all those around him.
At gymnastics he loves to swing and fly away
And pull other crazy moves on a whim.

His memory is quite unbelievable
That he knows stories front to back.
He can even be quite reasonable
When Chloe is on the attack.

Yup, he's a great big brother
That's always up for a hug.
A KC embrace makes me shudder
With warm fuzzy feelings - I feel like a big lug.

Coco's 3? How can that be!

Oh me-oh-my, how can it be?
Our little Chloe is turning 3
Growing up as fast as can be
She's a gem of a girl, as I'll demonstrate to thee.

She's as quick as whip
And sharp as a tack.
Always ready with a quip
Or (look out!) prepping her next sneak attack.

She's still our "lil' Pig Pen"
But at least now the plate stays on the table.
In terms of mess making, I give her a 10,
Though when it's time to clean, she pretends she's not able.

Coco's a little charmer
Making friends wherever she goes.
Except for bees (she thinks they'll harm her)
And other flying things, which are her biggest foes.

She's not a fan of boats that rock,
But she likes to rock the boat.
She definitely thinks outside the flock
And loves to press the "Upside Down" button on her remote.

Chloe likes to dance, sing, and giggle,
Somersault, spin, and wiggle.
When she's happy, she squeals with delight
But when angry, you're in for a fight.

She eats fruit likes its about to disappear
And already has a passion for shoes.
She loves to play in water that's clear
Ask her about her favourite colour and it's purple she'll choose.





She's hanging on to blankie
And all her little friends.
It's no secret what to do when she's cranky:
Get blankie into her little hands!







Hanging out with Chloe is pure joy
- She's truly a one-of-a-kind gal.
She's more fun than any toy
And will forever be one of my best my pals.

Oh me-oh-my, how can it be?
Our little Chloe is turning 3
Growing up as fast as can be
She's a gem of a girl, as I've demonstrated to thee.
