“THE BEST THING” BY KENDALL AND DAVIS LAVENDER Blonde hair, blue eyes, and really pretty, yes She wears yoga pants and tank tops and sometimes a dress She is 5 feet something; she is taller than us We look like her, and she looks like us We call her Momma, but that’s not her name We call her Momma, just the same If there’s one thing we know, we know it for sure The best thing about Momma … is that we love her My sister is Kendall, and I’m known as “D” My Momma is great; she lets me have candy She likes to cuddle; she’ll say “Oh honey” She puts me in her room – cuddly cuddly, cuddly I hear her when she leaves, but I sleep in a little bit My favorite meal is pasta – that’s what I like to get She’ll ask, “Are you OK?” – she is just so nice She makes funny sounds and noises when we play the game of “Life” My brother is Davis, and I’m Kendall now I love my Momma so much, and this is how She takes me to Nail-‐toepia to get my nails done She gets me haircuts and shoes and toys just for fun She takes me to model homes; I want one so bad She’ll hold me and lay with me and tickle my back She’ll bring me to the couch if I’m hurt or I feel ill She takes care of me, and I know she always will Even when my brother fights and makes a big noise When Davis hits me, she says, “Stop that” in that big voice Salad, hot dogs, chicken nuggets and mac & cheese The best thing about Momma is that she loves me How do I know? Because she tells me every day How do we know? Because we feel the same way We call her Momma, but that’s not her name We call her Momma, just the same We look like her, and she looks like us The best thing about Momma … is that she loves us
