Little Children,

So much depends on your friends playing with you,

Getting that longed-for cupcake,

On telling me exactly what's on your mind

Receiving a sticker from your friend,

Finishing your song right now!

Little Children

So much depends on making sure that there isn't a stranger in the house,

Shaking the living daylights out of that half-filled Mountain Dew bottle,

Having that very shovel I'm using,

Getting your coat zipped up,

Having daddy come home right now!

Little Children,

You remind me to cherish the little things in life
