The first time I looked at them
I knew it was going to be hard
but yet I have done it on my own
and just look at them so far.
She is the sparkle in my eyes
he is the weakness of my heart
together they are my babies
and our lives will never part.
They wake me each day smiling
faces as happy as can be
it makes me feel so special
that they think the world of me.
Sometimes they can be brats
and sometimes they can be real bad
but inside I go on knowing
they are the best things I will ever have.
There is nothing in the world like looking at them
seeing just how much they have grown
the new things that they learn everyday
and the love I have taught them to show.
I know that they will grow up one day
and they may move to some place that is far
and even though it will hurt to see this
I will be so proud of who they are.
I treasure each moment I can with them
for in my heart they will never be replaced
I know I will always love them
no matter how much of me they take.
