SHORT STACKS
November 26th, 2005
We continue a holiday tradition
Morning excitement
Warms my humble home
Jordan, Will, and I
Bachelor slumber party
“Can I make a request”?
Jordan already knows the answer
The thick bacon begins to fry
One and a half pounds
Soon to be devoured
Fresh eggs
Sunny side up
Short stacks
Butter toast piled four high
The rich aroma
Brings back such wonderful memories
Lazy Saturday brunch
Sleeping late
Even Will eats heartily
A pleasant change from his normal finicky habits
Ice cold milk
Two gallons
Downed in eager gulps
Special times indeed
For this loving extended family
I sip my steaming coffee
And observe this happy feast
Thank you God for my children
I am so satisfied
Thrilled
Blessed
