For Sale

Cam has really enjoyed reading Shel Silverstein poem books lately.  A few nights ago he read this poem and he laughed and laughed about it.  I think it strikes too close to home for him, especially with being the older brother of almost THREE little sisters!

For Sale

One sister for sale!
One sister for sale!
One crying and spying young sister for sale!
I'm really not kidding,
So who'll start the bidding?
Do I hear a dollar?
A nickel?
A penny?
Oh, isn't there, isn't there, isn't there any
One kid who will buy this old sister for sale,
This crying and spying young sister for sale?
