Today I have a little one
He is so much joy and so much fun
It hurts to see this little one cry
He is just too little to tell me why
I just want to hold and kiss him forever
But I know forever doesn’t live in a day
And tomorrows will bring a man on his way
Sometimes I wish my baby would never grow old
But then I think of what he would be missing of his own baby to hold
And I wouldn’t want him to miss anything
For what he has given me he deserves everything
But I will reluctantly step back and let him be a man
And all I’ll see is my little one as I let go of his hand
So I try not to think of tomorrow but live in today
No time for naps we need to play
Today I will do all the crazy things just to make him smile
And while I’m hugging and kissing him I will know what heaven feels like just for awhile
