Baby sneezes
midnight snacks
3 steps forward
and you never looked back.
First word, second word
can't stop talking
endless running replaced your walking
Those trips to the park
catching my "slide rocket"
going home with daisies
overflowing each pocket
I sang you to sleep
when you were little
held your hand as you grew
I taught you to speak
taught you dress
taught you to tie your shoe
You stand before me a little man
looking as big as a kindergardner can
so brave, so afraid, so excited and yet
You reach for my hand as we take the next step
