This Poem was written by me one morning - as i was watching and talking to my sweet little 3 year old in bed
I look at your innocent eyes and see..
A world, as I wish it would be
A place full of wonder and joy
Where most problems are solved with a toy!
Where all grown-ups are just people to play with
And fantasy stories are true (not myth!)
Where mommys kiss will make any boo all right
And Daddys hugs will make you smile all night
I look at your innocent eyes and wonder…
Which will be the moment when the illusions will fall
When you begin to see the terrors, within this worlds walls
When I have to teach you to beware of strangers
That being friendly with everyone - has its dangers
That moment when the innocence will forever be lost
Is the moment , as a parent, i dread the most
Today when you said "Mom I want to be Four!"
I truly truly wished - you could be three forever more!
-- For Aariv - the best gift of my life. May you always see the happy side of things
