Where

Where is the one I once new My little angel dressed in blue Now you stand here a young man No longer do you want to hold moms hand Where did you come from so bold and so brave Fighting off spiders and flowers to a girl you gave In four short years You will be gone My baby so big so strong How can it be that time has flown I closed my eyes and you were grown I know you will always be my baby in my heart But seeing you now tears me apart You so indepenant wanting to be free Were is the little boy who needed me I know what I am doing you say As you go off with your friends to play

The object of the parent is to teach the child independence. As good parents, we feel an emptiness when we succeed. Well written. I raised four and each one left a void when they went on their own. Congratulations on being featured. Vince
