God Made Little Girls

A speck of frills with a pinch of pink
A touch of lace with a dainty wink
He mixed these in with a love for dance
And heaps of laughter,some beauty perchance
He added oodles more of joy and grace,
Then He put some dimples in just the right place,
As a final touch,he included a curl
And with that He smiled, for He'd created Girl

God Made Little Boys

He took some jam,and some apple pies
He mixed in freckles,put twinkles in the eyes
He mussed up the hair and scuffed the knees,
Created a desire fore climbing tall trees
Spirit,fun,courage,heart...the need to explore
He added these items,and so much more
When He was done,He rested with joy
For there before him was the wonder of Boy

You're welcome Laura. It was easy to find. I just typed in the first line of the poem in Google and it brought it up for me. I'm glad you found what you were looking for. Happy Holidays!
 
These poems are an insult to all the spirited, fun, courageous strong women on the Cathe boards. This thread needs to end NOW. Please make it go away. x(

Nancy, I truly don't want to be rude but if you don't like this thread than don't open it. She likes it and so do some other people so why ruin what another likes. She wants to get it for her own reason. I'm not saying I love it either but why keep coming back on this thread to say end now. All you are doing is keeping it alive by bumping it back to the top. I just think we all need to be more aware of others feelings and tastes and if we don't like it, we can just read something else. Please don't take this as a flame or anything. I just feel for the lady who really does like this and has been searching for it. That's all. I really am not trying to be mean so don't take it that way.
 
Toni, you are, of course, correct. I made the mistake of opening it once, and then subscribed when I posted.

I know I have a tendency to over-react to this kind of stereotyping. I had to fight it so much when I was young in order to grow up and be successful as a woman. Sometimes I feel like a maniacal crusader trying to stop this kind of stereotyping so no little girl will ever have to experience what I experienced again. I may be crazy, but I assure you that my heart is in the right place.

I will unsubscribe now. :)

I have to admit...I'm with Nancy on this. These poems may be cute but IMO, stereotyping like this does a lot more harm than good :eek:

This is based on my life experience and observations I've made on the experiences of others around me :(

Despite what many might think, cute can be damaging.

Just my 2 cents. Don't mean to offend :)
 
Nancy and Candi,

I totally understand what you are saying. I have a five year old daughter and a six year old step-daughter. Believe me, I don't put them in the sterotypical roles of being the cutsy little girl with frills and all that stuff. My daughters play sports and are tomboys and also play with dolls and do the girl stuff. I never say oh that is for boys or whatever. I even let my son (age 3) play with dolls and stuff (which makes my husband and dad cringe) because I want him to be loving and affectionate and not just play with cars and stuff. I know what you mean. I don't like the stereotyping either. I just thought, well if she likes this, I'll help her find it and move on. But I do understand your points because I feel the same way about stereotyping!
 
Toni,

How are you feeling since your procedure? That was you with the Bladder thing, wasn't it?
 
Yes that was me, how did you remember?

I am doing well, thanks for asking. I still have some problems but they are aleviated a bit. I need to talk with my urologist soon because I am still having some issues. But even slight relief is a blessing so I guess I have to be somewhat happy. These problems with interstitial cystits and incontinence have been going on since I was a teenager and have gotten progressively worse over the years. I have tried so many medications and treatments. My latest opition is to stay on the three meds I am on (don't work but they want to keep me on them) and had the Botox injected into my bladder to try to paralyze the bladder a bit so it doesn't contract all the time. That is the procedure I had done. I have to get it done every three months. I have had a little relief but not much. Sorry this is so long. Thanks for asking though. Happy holidays!
 
Toni,

The reason I remember so vividly is that I had a week of interstitial cystitis symptoms that were evidentely caused by low estrogen (I am menopausal). I didn't have incontinence but I did have the constant urge to pee. It was one of the most uncomfortable weeks of my life. Fortunately for me, the doctor adjusted my hormones and it cleared up.

I'm glad you got some relief!
 
Wow, a week of symptoms. Try having 11-12 years of it. The two have really wreaked havoc on my quality of living. I am so limited to the things I can do because I have to always be near a bathroom. It is humiliating and even interferes with my sex life, whatever that is. I'm glad that your doctor was able to help you. That's great!
