Once I had ...
Nigel receiving an award from Minister Lim Swee Say |
he was so small and cute.
Sitting in the backseat,
On the morning drop-off route.
He was rather shy and quiet,
among his noisy friends.
But he blended in quite nicely,
with his over-sized uniform pants.
Now look at how he's grown,
in just a short six years.
Where's my P1 boy,
with his insecurities and fears?
He's taller than his mum,
and his shoes are same as mine.
Now an S1 boy,
he takes the bus just fine.
I miss those early years,
as any parent might say.
The kids grow up too fast,
appreciate them every day.
