To all children who bring joy to the faces of their parents.
Truly, it is indeed an ambivalent experience to watch their transit from a phase to yet another.
And yes, we love every one of you as God uses you all to paint our lives even better.
My Reginald, goofy young child:
My Reginald, goofy young child
I'll love you till the end of time
Your stories divine as you mime
Each character you play is filed
You are my son and I'll be mild
I want you grow and no dime
My Reginald, goofy young child
I'll love you till the end of time
Their journey to adulthood piled
Sometimes your actions can be lime
But we pray they don't get in crime
As we try to see their acts tried.
My Reginald, goofy young child
