a little boy and his big cardboard box

This box came today...

and this little boy was pretty excited to see it

when he woke up from his nap.

(i was pretty excited about what was inside it,

he was just excited about the box)

Lauren comes over to play with Beck

every Thursday afternoon.

So, when she came over today,

they had some fun with that cardboard box.

Beck was so excited to show

"beck's youse" 

to his dada when he came home tonight.

We could hardly get him out of

his cardboard box

to go to bed.

(we had to give him his medicine through one of the windows)

"little boy,

so much depends on...

a puddle to jump,

truck down the hall,

a ball in the goal,

waving good-bye,

and...

your big cardboard box."

(Little Boy by Alison McGhee and Peter H. Reynolds)
