Although you’re not that little baby
I once gently held in my arms
And although you’re not that tiny one
To whom I stared at all its charms

Although your fingers have really grown
I still like them wrapped around my thumb
And although your legs are twice as long
I still enjoy them when they run

Although your cries are ever few
They still bring me on a dime
And although your kisses are even fewer
They still melt me every time

Although you no longer sleep on my chest
I still cuddle with you in bed
And although you like your space
On my arm you rest your head

Although your favorite sleeper no longer fits
It still hangs in your room
And although we should pass it on
That won’t happen none too soon

Although rattles have been replaced with toys
And a 4 in 1 stroller to a bike
And although I can’t slow you down
It’s something that I like

Although these memories are of the past
They stay imbedded in my mind
And although time has moved on
They are never hard to find
