OK, this week’s Tackle it Tuesday topic is personal. My daughter – my baby – turns 13 this week. THIRTEEN! Do you know what this means? Both of my kids are now teenagers and I am officially old. Never thought I’d see the day. Excuse me while I go apply my Ben-Gay.
Today, you will be a song writer. In honor of my daughter’s birthday, let’s see what you can do with the famous Happy Birthday song. Change the lyrics but definitely keep it a birthday theme. (Think, “Happy birthday to you, you live in a zoo, you look like a monkey, and you smell like one too…”) You may leave the first line the way it is if you want, but make up the rest.
Looking forward to your songs! Now put on your birthday hat and TACKLE IT!

You were born on this day
You were born on this day
The world became a better Place
When you were born on this day
God Allowed me to see
God allowed me to see
I saw a miracle when you were born
God loves you and me
Happy Birthday to you
Chocolate cake is taboo
If you don’t watch your weight,
We’ll be singing ‘Adieu.’
Happy Birthday to you
What a Great Day for you
You’ve come a long way
Since you were just two!
God has been so good
He has done all He could
And I know He’ll be with you
Help you do what you should.
Jesus loves you I know
Watches you as you grow
Even now – as you know –
Wherever you go.
Wants to help you become
A blessed servant for Him
Wants to fill you with joy
Even now in your “Teens”.
And He never forgets
How to do that of course,
So in work or in fun
Be a Teen for the Son !!
Love it, Flora! Everyone has done a wonderful job with this little challenge.
