My Baby Sister

My baby sister is a rose
She used to suck me on my nose
Sometimes she can be a minx
She even giggles when she drinks
Her favourite toy is "Princess" cow
If we don't find it she will howl
When I bath her every night
She won't get out and there's a fight
When Mum puts her nappy on
She squirms so much it goes on wrong
When she's sitting in the swing
We love to hear the sounds she brings
Our sister fills us all with pleasure
She is our little baby treasure
