There once was a time
you held me close,
and rocked me softly to sleep.
Then there were days
where I made you crazed,
out a window
you wanted to leap!
A sweet little child
I'm sure that I was,
I put a sparkle in your eyes,
to see me grown up
and on my own,
it must be quite a surprise!
For now I'm a mom
experiencing too,
the joys of a cute little girl.
Who also can be
a handful for me,
to my life she adds a twirl.
But I'll love her and cherish her
and keep her safe,
she'll always be close to my heart.
And when the time comes
for her to leave,
I'll know that I've done my part.
For I've learned from the best,
As everyone knows
she's a woman who is so fine,
A mom who's given it all to me,
She's the mom that I call mine!
