Right now i’m just a little boy with big blue wondering eyes-
I can see the things around me, but it’s a world in disguise
I am not able to talk yet,and alot, I do not understand
But I try to learn by watching daddy-
For I too, someday, will become a man
There are many things happening in my small mind
So I watch those around me for answers I need to find
Sometimes I turn to momma-no matter what she’s always there
I can count on her for anything and the love she has to share
No matter what the trouble is or what the problem may be
She has the answer to everything-that’s why God picked her just for me
Then I look up to my daddy; I reach and want to say:
“Walk carefully through life, Daddy, I’m right behind you-
Just a few years away…to follow in your footsteps and walk my own path someday
Being parents must be hard, especially when it’s time to let go-
But for now you can just step back..and watch me as I grow
To you, I’ll always be your son, a little boy with big blue wondering eyes
-Afraid to accept, that I am a man- In a little boy’s disguise
About  a boy growing into a man
