Dear Kids
You want to grow up so fast
Mom wants you to stay small
When mom looks at you she still sees a little one
You look at yourself and see an "adult"
You want to grow up so fast
Mom is holding on tight
Tight but she knows she will have to let go
Be patient with mom
Let her have her second and third glances and hugs as you head out the door
Time is moving fast, your future is bright
Mom is cheering you on all day and night
As you head out into the real world remember all of moms good advice
She isn't nagging, she is speaking from experience
Dear Kids
Pause for a moment and let mom know her advice is on your heart and mind
Let her know you too sometimes wish you could slow down time
