THE PERFECT TEAM (Chapter Three)



CHAPTER THREE:
                                LOOK HOW FAST SHE'S GROWING


Now Little Darling is beginning to talk
                                                                       and to crawl
Her parents are watching her
                                                  with the expression of awe
Her parents are realizing
                         that she will become more mischievous
Because to her, Little Darling, sees everything
                                                  is so new and mysterious.

Most of the time, Little Darling,
                      will be crawling into a room
                                        to participate in a reckless muss
Other times, Little Darling,
                     will be holding her bottle in her mouth
                                             and making no reluctant fuss
  .....
