When Mom says, "Get dressed,"

I know that she means

it's time to pull on

my comfy blue __________. (jeans)

I walk down the stairs

as quiet as a fox,

because I'm wearing

only my ___________. (socks)

To keep my feet comfy,

here's what I choose -

my band-new pair

of lace-up _________. (shoes)

I hike through the bushes

and don't get hurt

when I go exploring

in my long-sleeved _______. (shirt)

My bats the ball with

a sharp, loud clap

when I wear my

good-luck baseball ________. (cap)
