David
Steady and true with eyes so blue
what did I ever do to deserve the love of you?
Heart for humanity and love for all
makes me be better at hearing that call
Marc
Deep and quiet, big and strong,
I get lost in those thoughts you bring along...
Asking and probing, finding solace in space
simple but complicated, hating the pace
Christina
Lips like hearts and eyes soft and brown
gentle yet fierce the jewels of your crown
cautious and curious, warm and sweet
home is your hearth with love at your feet
Lora
Fair and dainty with eyes like steel
In her kingdom there is seldom an appeal
determined, orderly, and ever so steady
laughing, listening, and adventure ready
Your Mama
Being each your mother has been my pleasure
your footprints on my heart has been my treasure
I close my eyes and see your sweet faces
kisses and hugs, crayons, kittens, and races
I am the queen of the land of this happy
even though my words and heart are real sappy

Getting Serious About Comedy (Part I)
If I were asked to remark on my life and the childhood that paved some road leading me to this point, I would have to say something about all the funny people who surrounded me for the last 26,872 days (and counting). Somewhere along that road, I became a big fan of laughter and the comedy that spawns it – and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.
