Dragging and sleepy,
oblivious to time
I'll get up for that daughter of mine

Tired and weary
I walk down the hall
Two in the morning, i'll answer her call

Crying and fretting
if she could just talk -
we go up and down the hall for a walk

Hungry or thirsty
give into demands
she doesn't care if I had any plans

Shakened and frightened -
face laden with tears
I'm always there to calm all her fears

She can't find her dolly
and scared to get up
I have another; I keep as backup

Fever and sore throat
she's up all night long
I'll soothe her and rock her and sing her sweet songs

She calls at all hours -
in middle of the night
upset over boyfriend, they both had a fight

Excited or upset
she'll talk while I yawn
daylight is breaking, it's just about dawn

Secrets and closeness
she's open and free
there isn't anything that she can't tell me

I have no regrets
for sleep that i've lost
I'd do it all over; at any cost

Baby to grownup
oblivious to time
I'll always get up for that daughter of mine

You are an awesome mother, and your daughter is blessed to have you, as well as you are to have her! There is no greater gift a parent can give, then to be your adult childs best friend! My mother and I have that, and I am so grateful for it!

Hugs,
Maria

This made me smile, I have a 17 yr old daughter who constantly choses to tell me her love life woes at 2am as she creeps into bed beside me..and an 10 yr old son who tells me of his while shouting through bathroom door while i try for a relaxing bath..lol
