Round and around
Babies everywhere.
I heard a friend’s daughter, almost 2 whole years old, sing a Tulip song to me on the phone.
Such songs our mothers sang to us, not long ago those baby voices were us.
Mispronounced and two pitches high, squeaky charm did get us by.
This friend I talk of, one of many mothers, I’ve known for 20 something years.
It was our turn. Now it is theirs. Cheers to the children of all my happy friends.
Parenting remains a close and distant stranger to me. And though I have several younglings in my world, I am still awaiting the opportunity. With children abound, life becomes a lot more interesting, entertaining, not to mention chaotic. I hope the children of today and tomorrow evolve well, surpassing our own limitations, redefining morality, and the works. It is always fun to think about all the good the children of the world are capable of.
