God already has a plan for my life

Don't pass me by ,says the toddler

like this where I am crying and whining
all the time because I know you and daddy
need to have your own quite time,
but could you pick me up and hold me
one more time.

while he is running up to a Ice cream truck
in hopes to get a ice cream cone but
with no such luck.

who while riding his bike and came a cross
a stray dog on the street,

and I will name you Pete.
Don't pass me by say the teenager boy

and could you please stop by and pick
me up a bag of that soft candy at the groceries store?
Don't pass me by says the Grandpa

and son and the best husband and father a playful grandpa.
I tried ,as he got down on his knees and cry, Please
