Sometimes I wonder if I’ve done him right. As a mother watching him grow, Not letting him out of my sight, Oh I worry so. Authority isn’t my strong suit, I have never been in charge, But better than being mute, Like his father, at large. When it comes to being a single mother, There are times when I must let him go, And although I want to hover, Being a good parent is what I must show. I love the boy who I pledged to raise, From that very first moment, that very first day.
