7.

You can leave now, Mama,
and close the door.
I'm a big girl, Mama,
my feet touch the floor.
You can leave now, Mama,
and shut it tight.
I've got things to do
and I'm all right.
You can leave now, Mama,
but before you do,
Remember, Mama, I love you.

  1. This was inspired by my daughter Paige when I was tucking her in tonight. It's a culmination of after so much growing up in the last few months she told me not to lay down with her too long and then changed her mind at the last minute. And yes, I cried.
