Haiku Friday: My child is too old edition

Giggles 1st day B&W

Tomorrow at noon
I will drive my sweet Giggles
to the Ice Cream Stand

The motivator?
Cash-to spend on what she wants.
To save for a car.

Where did the time go?
It seems like just yesterday
when she was a babe.

You know the sad part
Something unbelievable 
That wonderful stuff.

The yummy ice cream
I will have to pay for it
No comps for the mom.

Want to play along or just read some really cool haikus? 
Visit A Mommy Story for details.

Just one more day to get in on some sweet prizes and help 
out Maddie at the same time. Every little bit helps!

Oh wow... she's old enough to get a job? Bitter sweet moment, no?

She's beautiful. Tell her I said so. :)

Aw, she's growing up! You know you will be grateful when you can send her to the store while you stay in your jammies ;)

You have a beautiful daughter. Time certainly flies, doesn't it?

It's good to meet you through Haiku Fridays!

What a pretty picture. And a very sweet haiku as well

No freebies for Mom? That's adding insult to injury!

Such a sweet haiku, although it really makes me dread watching time fly with my own.

She's a beauty!

Oh my...they just keep growing on you...don't they?

They grow so fast! I was looking through baby books yesterday. Sigh.
