Your bedroom...I get to see your bedroom!! And I spotted you right away, but I won't give it away for the other commenters. Your bedroom is so cozy, and I love the double chairs! You do great Haiku!

Hello Beau,
Your Mama is very creative.
I like the haiku and the photo.
I found your mama and you look comfy on your bed.
HUGS, have a happy day!
We didn't see your mom at first, but we went back and found her. You look very comfy on that bed.
Clapping for all the lovely things I see and read.
