Child of Mine

How innocent are thee?
Sleeping in your crib
So peacefully

Children look up 2
Watching everything you do
How sweet it is to watch a child grow
And mature

To buying their first car
And celebrating graduation
Their first prom
The day they settle down
In a nice home
And have kids.

Child of mine
How sweet is thee?
To watch u grow up and get married
How proud to say that I’m your mother today.
