Fractions of my Life By Jack Whitney

Fractions of my Life
By Jack Whitney

1/6 of me is baseball. You run, you hit and you score.
You pitch, you catch and you have fun.

1/6 of me is football. You run, you pass and you catch.
You hit, you block and you have fun.

1/3 of me is snowboarding. You ride, you get air and you do tricks.
You fall, you compete and you have fun.

1/6 of me is school. You study, you take tests and you read.
You make friends, you do math and you have fun.

1/6 of me is family. You have brothers, you have sisters, and you have a mom and a dad.
You have cousins, you have aunts and uncles, and you have love.

Please pass the "butt!"

AJ: "Mom, can you cut me another piece of bread? From the end?"

Maureen: "That's called the 'heel' of the bread, did you know that?"

AJ: "No, why is it called that?"

Maureen: "Well, I guess because it looks like the heel of your foot?"

AJ: "Hmm. Well, I think it looks like a 'butt.' Mom, can you cut me a butt please?"

Maureen: "Sure AJ, one butt coming up!"
