I know that you are growing
By many leaps and bounds
And no longer any prints
On my walls or cupboards found.
And as you grow along
Into a fine young man
I still see those little fingers
And it's hard to understand.
Where all the time flew by
It seemed to go so fast
The distance now between us
Has me longing for the past.
To hold you once again
Enclosed within my arms
Would be my hearts desire
To keep you from all harm.
But as you grow and soar
Remember this one thing
The baby bird must fly
Before he learns to sing.
Go after life...Grab it...Don't let go!
For God has made you for just a time as this....
I love you boys...
Mom
