From a child perspective, we think you'll live forever.
You're the person of warmth with the fantastic charm.
One, who unselfishly welcome you in your arms.
The one many of us simply call mom.

From a child perspective, you that man we brag upon.
The house defender ready to act like our defendant.
One, we know go through  the ditches to make sure we have.
If you can't say you love us.
In our heart , we know you care.

The feeling.
The impression is there.
As adults and reflecting back.
Many of us must confess, we take you for granted.

Long when you're gone.
And we think of you.
We realize the various things we put you through.
Even the best of the best must confess this.
We take you for granted.

Honor and respect you honestly have earned.
From the love you shown.
From providing us a home.
For sacrifices you have made.
Really,again for various things.

If we should list upon papers the positive against the negative.
We realize the pluses out weigh the minuses.
Sad when truth comes from the baddest of times.
That we take you for granted.
After seeing the things you have went out of your way to do for us.

Oh, the life of a parent.
You deserve so much more.
