A Touch Of Love
You were six months old and full of fun
With a blink of my eye, you were suddenly one.


There were so many things we were going to do
But I turned my head and you turned two.


At two you were very dependant on me
But independence took over when you turned three.


Your third birthday, another year I tried to ignore
But when I lit the candles, there weren’t three, but four.


Four was the year that you really strived
Why, look at you now, you’re already five.


Now you are ready for books and for ru

les
This is the year that you go to school.
The big day came, you were anxious to go
We walked to the bus, going oh, so slow.


As you climbed aboard and waved goodbye
I felt a lump in my throat and tears stung my eye.


Time goes so fast, it’s hard to believe
That just yesterday you were home here with me.


And tomorrow, when the bus brings you home and you jump to the ground
You’ll be wearing your cap and graduation gown.


So I’m holding to these moments as hard as I can
Because the next time I look, I’ll be seeing a man.

H Sayings About Children

He held the bouquet in a tightly clenched fist
A wilted and droopy yellow
A room full of blossoms I wouldn’t exchange
For the pride shown by that little fellow

Not lilacs or daisies, gardenias, not orchids
No flowers – cultivated or wild
Can equal a bouquet of spring dandelions
Handpicked by an innocent child

I Sayings About Children

I don’t want my children to be what I want them to be. I want them to become everything God created them to be.

I gave birth to you, but you came with no instructions. All I knew what that I loved you long before I saw you. I know I made some mistakes and for that, I am sorry, but I was doing the best I could with what I knew. Everything I did for you, I did from love. You are my child, my life, my dreams for tomorrow. I will always love you and there is nothing that could ever destroy my love for you.

I like to walk with Grandpa and Grandma
Their steps are short like mine
They don’t say, “Now hurry up”
They always take their time

I like to walk with Grandpa and Grandma
Their eyes see things like mind do…
Wee pebbles bright, a funny cloud
Half hidden drops of dew

Most people have to hurry
They do not stop and see
I’m glad that God made Grandpa and Grandma
Unrushed and young, like me

I may not be perfect, but when I look at my children, I know that I got something in my life perfectly right.

I will hold you tight, support you, guide you, teach you, hug you, protect you and love you with all my heart and Soul.. I am your parent. Since the day you were born and until I draw my last breath, all that I am is yours.

I will… let them be little. Fill their hearts with laughter. Help them grow wings. Nurture their sense of wonder. Inspire them to believe. And love them like there is no tomorrow.

I won’t always cry, Mummy
When you leave the room
And my supermarket tantrums
Will end too, soon


I won’t always wake, Daddy
For cuddles through the night
And one day you will miss
Having a chocolate face to wipe

You won’t always wake to find my foot
Is kicking you out of bed
Or find me sideways on your pillow
Where you want to lay your head

You won’t always have to carry me
In asleep from the car
Or piggy-back me down the road
When my little legs can’t walk that far

So cherish every cuddle
Remember them all
One day, Mummy and Daddy
I won’t be this small

M Sayings About Children

My Beautiful Child.
When you were born, you never came with instructions. I know I have made some mistakes along the way and for those I’m sorry. I am far from being the perfect parent, but I have always done the best I could. The mistakes I have made came from a lack of understanding, not a lack of love, because from the moment you were born into my life I knew I would love you with all I am. On the day your were born I looked into your eyes and all my dreams came true. I love you more than you will ever know, now and for all eternity.

My child is my rainbow, my ray of Light in the darkest storms.

My kids are my heart and Soul. They will always be my babies, even when they grow old.

Counted little fingers
Counted little toes
Held a little hand

Powdered a little booty
