Oh My Precious Son

Oh my precious son
you mean the world to me
most important thing
forever you will be

such a beautiful little boy
with such a caring heart
healthy as can be
and very very smart

the road ahead may get tough
but I'm determined to succeed
giving you the guidance
and strength that you need

I don't expect it to be easy
raising you on my own
being both mom and dad
until you are grown

I'm going to be successful
teaching you to be strong
when temptation is overwhelming
and teaching you right from wrong

I'm not only your mother
but I am also your friend
a friendship that's everlasting
and love that never ends.
