When I`m a little old lady, then I`ll live with my children and bring them great joy. To repay all I`ve had from each girl and boy I shall draw on the walls and scuff up the floor; run in and out without closing the door. I`ll hide frogs in the pantry, socks under my bed. And whenever they scold me, I`ll hang my head. I`ll run and I`ll romp, always fritter away ..... the time to be spent doing chores every day. I`ll pester my children when they are on the phone. As long as they`re busy I won`t leave them alone. Hide candy in closets, rocks in a drawer ... and never pick up what I drop on the floor. Dash off to the movies and not wash a dish. I`ll plead for allowance whenever I wish. I`ll stuff up the plumbing and deluge the floor. As soon as they`ve mopped it, I`ll flood it some more. When they correct me, I`ll lie down and cry, kicking and screaming, not a tear in my eye. I`ll take all their pencils and flashlights, and then .. when they buy new ones, I`ll take them again. I`ll spill glasses of milk to complete every meal .... Eat my banana and just drop the peel. Put toys on the table, spill jam on the floor. I`ll break lots of dishes as though I were four. What fun I shall have, what joy it will be to Live with my children....just the way that they lived with me!
