They Flew From Nest
There comes a time when you have to let them go, watch them fly on their own and balance the bike.
Often, this time comes sooner for your kids than for you and perhaps this is where the real problem lies. If we could get together with our kids and arrive at a mutual time that is right then we might eliminate the stress. When this time arrives then we can give it a try and there may be fewer disputes than we currently experience, may be none at all.

They Flew From Nest Train a child in the way he should go Have
faith that later he will know Every
turn to make when you’re not there You
must let go when you’ve done your committed share For
many of us something goes wrong Life
bumps on the path you walked along Eventually
knocks your baby from off your knee When
you open your eyes they want a house key Freely
they move with late ins and early outs Refusing
to tell of their whereabouts Obnoxious
in manner like no one you could raise May
be turning away from God and giving Him no praise Nothing
you do seems to be right Earnestly
pray for their protection at night Seek
God’s help for Him to show them the way They’ll
find the way home so have a Blessed Mother’s Day |
