Let's nurture and comfort our children every day,
their lives and and happiness depend on us.
Never forget that they are our future,
we owe it to them to be there through it all.
Cherish every moment that you share each day,
encourage and believe in their talents and they will grow.
Hold their hands while you still can,
carry them and hold them close to your heart.
Tell them that you love them unconditionally,
and show them in every way that you can.
