My Little Laddie
He will always be my little laddie
I love my little laddie,
he be short and fat.
sometimes when he’s out to play,
I make him wear a hat.
He has a lot of quiet days,
He’ll relax and flop around.
And when he hangs off the edge of a chair,
He doesn’t touch the ground.
He sometimes gets excited,
Which makes him stand up proud.
Unfortunately, it can make him sick,
If he starts to bounce around.
He wants to try some different sports,
his current fave is cavin’.
He likes to find the nice wet ones,
It’s easier to slide in.
But now he is a teenager,
It’s getting really hard.
To find a range of activities,
Where father and son can take part.
