Great poems! It really is amazing how the world is full of wonder for young children, and it's too bad they outgrow it. It sounds like you are making the best of the short time you have with your youngest. They grow so fast, like you said about the makeup replacing doll houses.

Sorry to hear about your father in law, that's one of the worst cancers he has unfortunately. It's a miserable one too, I feel for him and your wife. It's going to be a rough road.

Great work like always!
