Mac and Joey

My baby’s gone outside to start his day

He is the most amazing little boy

At three he’s full of life and loves to play

He heads out down the path bouncing with joy

He stops to pick up something from the ground

Perhaps a rock or stick or once-prized toy

I watch and wonder what it is he’s found

A ball, he throws it far for Mac the dog

Young Mac returns with just a curl of bark

He’s taken from the nearest Birchwood log

Now Joey’s squatting down, he’s found a frog

He’s showing it to Mac who starts to bark

They play like this each day from dawn to dark

    How I wish my little boy is three, so that he can go outside to play and fulfill his curiosity. :-)

    Hi again, Walter. How old is your little boy? It sounds like he’s very young. Aren’t they wonderful!

    a boy and his dog, nothing better…

    In the original version, the boy was five but I couldn’t find a picture of a five year old with a dog. Three year olds still need naps. Your twins are three; you know that.
