The days, seem to have grown
steadily shorter
with the momentous arrival
of my children
The mirror, a constant reminder
that I'm already getting older
I know I am not old, not that
much time has gone
But enough time has flown
for me to realize
My babies are no longer babies,
they are now two little men
and one little woman
Soon the days of cuddling
will become sweet memories
It saddens me to know
that all my sweet reflections
Will one day only be
they "use-to-be's"
Yet to watch them growing,
learning every day
Fills me with a special pride
even time can't take away
So I will just sit back and
take a breath
And no matter how bumpy
this road my get
I'm going to enjoy the ride.
