Best poem ever!

Seriously the best poem ever...

My Mom tells the story of her going out with me, and people complementing her on how fast she got back in shape (she was really healthy!), and she would always say "Thank you, but I cheated, we adopted her!"

The ladies in my circle

Share their memories

About the pain of childbirth

I felt left out you see

But then we got a call that

A baby had been born

We rushed right out and got her

One sweet September morn

Now I’ve joined the ranks as

A mom with all my friends

But still they tell their stories

The details never end!

But I just sit and listen

With a smile on my face

When they all complain that

They still have extra weight

Do you think that I should tell them

When I get the chance

That right after I got my baby

I could still zip up my pants!?
