At '3' she is a "Kid not a Baby",
Loved by all, Grandma about Her is, Almost, Crazy.

Cute, Inquisitive, Smart,
She is Closest to Papa's 'Mended' Heart.

Mommy is Bound to Her Day and Night,
With Love and Commitment in which She Takes Full Delight.

Daddy Takes Pleasure with Her in a "Play-fight",
To Give Her Courage in Defending Her Right.

She and Her Kabei are an Item Unique,
Found in the Books and Stories Antique.

She,

And, Fast Develops it with Favor Abound.
