just to see you smile

i've been hearing this song alot lately, not even sure of the title, but some of the lyrics say,

"it's only for a moment you are mine to hold,

the plans that heaven has for you will all too soon unfold;

so many different prayers I pray, for all that you might do,

but most of all I want to know, you're walking in the truth.

And if I never told you, I want you to know, that as I watch you grow....

CHORUS:

I pray that God would fill your heart with dreams,

And that faith gives you the courage, to dare to do great things.

I'm here for you whatever this life brings,

so let my love give you roots and help you find your wings."

It goes on to say many more things that THIS mom wishes for her children, and it's a really touching song. But when I hear it, I have this mental "slide show" going through my head and I feel like I'm really standing on the sideline of my life watching it pass SO quickly.

Then I am overwhelmed with love for them and think of how much I LOVE to see them smile.
