My little girl skips into my room

Her smile still touches my heart

The same as it did the day she was born

I've loved her from the start



As my son sits in my lap

I think how all this came to be

The little feet I look at now

What will they take him to see

I wonder what will they go through

I look in their face and can only stare

Who will they marry, how bout children

Will they feel heartache or despair





What will they become

Maybe a mom, maybe a dad

Will they follow in my foosteps

Or have opportunities I never had



As I ponder on all of this

The memories fly into my mind

The first time I held them

The way their fingers gripped mine



There are always moments

Throughout every day

I'll not want to forget

I hope they never fade



As I watch them both grow up

And realize how time flies

Today, they are my little ones

Tomorrow, could be goodbye



If nothing else, I hope they know

God's watching all the time

And remember that I love them

And will always call them mine
