Their beautiful and angelic laughter
The sound of their feet as they pitter patter
Jumping up and down with happiness and joy
All the little girls and little boys
Excited screams as they chase and run
Smiles adorn their faces as they enjoy fun
Sniffles from pain of their freshly cut boo boo
Shouts of excitement when they lose another tooth
Energetic and cheerful they always seem to be
Playing hide and seek and climbing trees
Screams of terror at the monster under their bed
Cries of pain from falling on their head
Sweet giggles from tickles on their tummy
Moans of satisfaction as they enjoy their favorite snack, yummy
Requests to play horsy or get piggy back rides
The look of curiosity and wonder in their eyes
Pleas and request to stay up just a little bit later
The sweetness of their voices as they say their bedtime prayer
Making your day with their gentle kisses and hugs
Grossing you out because they want to play with bugs
The pride in their voice as they recite their ABC’s
Whimpers from hurt from falling on their knees
Kisses on the cheek when you’re having a bad day
Tugs on your arm when they want to play
These are just some of the things our children do
But the most beautiful of them all is when they say I love you
There’s no hesitation or second-guessing
All the children of the world are god’s blessings
