Wednesday’s Child
Gayle Wilson
Monday’s child is fair of face.
Tuesday’s child is full of grace.
Wednesday child is full of woe.
Thursday’s child has far to go.
Friday’s child is loving and giving.
Saturday’s child works hard for its living.
But the child that’s born on the Sabbath day Is bonny and blithe, and good and gay.

for my work,
for always being there when I need her,
and for having the most wonderful laugh
in the entire world.
Thank you!
