Child of mine

Cindy

I have absolutely no idea whats going on
This baby in my hands says it all
The only thing I can really say is Mom
I don't know who else to call

This beautiful gift of life
Please don't be in spite
For this was the price
This beautiful gift of life

Adorable and Sweet
As it may seem
Cute and Cuddly
This little mini me

It learns from you
And you'll learn from them
The innocence they keep
You'll try to keep it in there head

Our children are us
And we are them
I will love you for life
For you I made a sacrifice
 
Cindy 'Brown' James
