Yesterday, in an attempt to get CJ off the computer for a while, hubby set him a challenge to write a poem on the subject of 'Dad'. Here it is:

Hi. Heres that poem. Its called DAD. Wakes up in the morning, When the day is dawning. Goes downstairs to eat, Almost dead on his feet. Back upstairs to change, Formal, nothing strange. Then into his Jag, Laptop in his bag. Traffic jam on motorway, Gets out of Jag to say: 'Can't you see i'm late? Got to fire a girl called Kate!' Finally at work, Interviews a jerk. Lunch break at last but he eats way fast. 'Got to work some more!' And rushes out the door. At last the day ends, Says goodbye to friends. Gets back in his car, Doesnt have to go far. Back home to watch T.V. With Mum And Bethany And Me!! by chris lewis!!
