When I'm an old lady, I'll live with each kid, I'll write on the wall with reds, whites and blues, When they're on the phone and just out of reach, When they cook dinner and call me to eat, I'll sit close to the TV, thru the channels I'll click, And later in bed, I'll lie back and sigh, Some other wives may like this one too!!
And make them so happy...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)
And 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)
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)
I'll not eat my green beans or salad just 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 cross both my eyes to see if they stick.
I'll take off my socks and throw one away,
And play in the mud 'til the end of the day.
(When I'm an old lady and live with my kids)
And 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."
(When I'm an old lady and live with my kids)

" Duty is the most sublime word in the English language.
"Excellence doesn't just happen.
"To control the past,
"They were the best you had, America,
and you turned your back on them". ~ Joe Galloway ~ Speaking about Vietnam Veterans
You can never do more,
you should never wish to do less."
~ Robert E. Lee writing to his son ~
It must be forged, tested and used.
It must be passed down.
And woven into the very fabric of our souls.
Until it becomes our nature."

31st Commandment of the Marine Corps
Is to give meaning to the present,
And direction to the future."
