i’ll soon take flight
and west i’ll go
with my hubby
two kids in tow
we’re off to see
child number two
attend his grad
oh yes, it’s true
the years have come
and gone so fast
another milestone
almost passed
the world awaits
both vast and wide
to learn what Josh
has deep inside
and this i know
from many years
excitement comes
and with it tears
for life awaits
my children three
plans and dreams
for them to see
and they must fly
off on their own
and find their way
now that they’re grown
and Josh will be
the first to leave
and spread his wings
and i believe
the world it is
a better place
for all three kids
are gifts of grace
and i must thank
the God above
for giving me
these gifts of love
