When I sit with you watching your favorite cartoons,
I hear the laughter of your voice as you whisper secrets to me
I see your tiny face that resembles mine

When I sit with you watching your favorite cartoons,
I smell the play-doh scent of your red-tinted hands
I remember all the sleepovers we've had

When I sit with you watching your favorite cartoons,
I taste the half eaten sucker you put in my mouth
I feel your tickles as you say, "this is payback"

When I sit with you watching your favorite cartoons,
I wonder who you'll grow up to be
I realize that you're growing up so quickly.
