Familia (Day 26)


Accepting abnormal actions
Bonding over 'bad behaviour'
Cousins crying on weddings
Doting spouses doing laundry
Everyone is everywhere
Father's apple of the eye
Grandparents of generations before
Happiness of haunting hugs
In-laws, a cross for all to bear
Jokes for the grumpy to jump
Keeping faith
Love is looping over
Motherly touch for all
Naughty new-borns
Over-protective older siblings
Paws of Pets for handshakes
Quilts to share on winter nights
Remembramces of really good times
Siblings to sob to at 3 am
Traditions to track us
Unfair yet understanding
Vacations, off from school
Wasting and whiling time, fighting
Xmas and other
Yonder to become yesterdays
Zeal for life
