I
won’t always
cry, Mummy
When
you leave the room
And
my supermarket tantrums
Will
end too, soon
I
won’t always
wake, Daddy
For
cuddles through the night
And
one day you will miss
Having
a chocolate face to wipe
You
won’t always
wake to find my foot
Is
kicking you out of bed
Or
find me sideways on your pillow
Where
you want to lay your head
You
won’t always
have to carry me
In
asleep from the car
Or
piggy-back me down the road
When
my little legs can’t
walk that far
So
cherish every cuddle
Remember
them all
One
day, Mummy and Daddy
I
won’t be this
small
