I cried so hard
When my children arrived
Made me so glad
to be alive
Precious little feet
soon running around
loving them so much
without a sound
look into their eyes
what did I see
so simple and fun
just let them be
A child does wrong
teach them new
holding them close
loving them too
going to school
with innocence and fear
making new friends
year after year
suddenly they change
lifes little trick
caught up in worry
making us sick
some try drugs
drinking their way
to wrecking the car
what can you say
but blessed with good luck
after they fall
watch them get up
and stand real tall
making me so proud
to be their dad
as I remember all the fun
we’ve always had
so blessings such as this
hold nice and tight
cherish forever
with all of your might
soon their day will come
and without any fear
they see it too
oh so clear
the birth of their child
Gods own creation
Miracle of life
Filled with sensation
Coming full circle
Yet once again
Watching them go
and remembering when
I love both of you
With all my heart
As I have done always
Right from the start
