Grateful I Am For It All©

From head to toe
I watch them grow
Each year they shed
Makes me sigh
As I know they’re closer to leaving
But I know as they grow
Their minds expand
And they turn into someone I can be proud of
It amazes me as I begin to see
Just how much they mirror me
They took all my words and held them close
And followed their direction
Now they stand proud as they reflect upon
Where they started and where they’ve ended
Together we molded the person they’ve become
With little regret
Some tears
But mostly blissfully happy memories
Today I can truly say I wouldn’t have changed a thing
Changing the past can often alter the goodness of a gifted end
So I opt for the bounty of all that I see before me
Grateful am I for it all
