They always want.
They always need.
They gave you that first
gray hair. They
eat too much. They
sleep too much.
They have a loving
relationship with dirt.
They break the good
dishes. They never
wash the glasses clean.
They really know how to
embarrass you in public.
They talk too loud.
They walk too slow.
They rarely do what you
ask, the way you want it
done. They go
away. They come
back with friends and
dirty laundry.
They worry you.
They frighten you.
They always want to
question you. They
love you. They
hate you . They always
have a great use for
your money. They
grow up. They get
better. They get
older.
They get worse.
Now just think how empty
the world would be if we
didn't have our children
to
love.
