Happy Birthday Janet (911 Hero)

 
To say we're thankful for her is a grave under-statement

On 9-1-1 sent rescue team, as planes made their descent!

 As PEMA supervisor, helped world trade center that day

While she was calmly doing her job, we all were in dismay

She married after high school, then she had her two children

She stayed at home to raise them; their names are Julie and Ben

She has eleven grandkids and a great grandbaby too

And also has step-children, Janet, you have quite a crew

She's active in her church, yoga, and Irish Heritage

She gardens, cooks and entertains and has a great marriage

She didn't start to write until after retirement

She loves the Japanese short form, all from the Orient

North Carolina, moved when they retired in 05

When husband sings, she plays piano, church will come alive

She loves to quote some authors, like the talented, Mark Twain

 Her favorite, it's never too late to begin again

We knew you'd be excited, Janet, because as a rule

We don't take off for other's birthdays, or kids out of school : )

But you're our hero and we're thankful that you are so cool

You helped the 911 victims, it could have been more cruel 

And we will all be celebrating, each in our own way

We're thankful for you, Janet;  and Happy Turkey Birthday
