I carried you with swollen feet and heartburn,โฃโฃ
ate healthy to help you grow big and strong,โฃโฃ
laughed one second and cried the next,โฃโฃ
and ran to the restroom 50 times a day with restless sleep,โฃโฃ
until you were ready to come into this world,โฃโฃ

And then time froze, as you were placed into my arms,โฃโฃ
my eyes heavy with exhaustion and love,โฃโฃ
and I held your little body and fed you until you gave a little smile and fell asleep on my chest.โฃโฃ

to want to be better.โฃโฃ
And right now, you need me in a way that you will never again,โฃโฃ
to carry you in my arms until I canโ€™t because youโ€™re too heavy,โฃโฃ
to dress you until the day you can put your pants on yourself,โฃโฃ
and to be your everything.โฃโฃ
