When you look at me

Remember how small I really am

Remember how I make you feel when I hug you

Remember how I can melt your heart with love

When you lose your patience

Remember, my hands need to explore

Remember, my mind needs to ask questions

Remember, my soul needs your attention

When the world seems overwhelming

Remember to teach me about God’s love

Remember to teach about kindness to others

Remember to teach me that I can make a difference in this world

When we are together

Remember to laugh with me

Remember to cry with me

Remember to celebrate life with me

When we disagree

Remember, I have lessons to learn

Remember, you have lessons to learn also

Remember, I am a blessing

But most importantly at every moment

Remember how very much I love you.
