Happy Mother's Day!

I am posting a little early this week, so the moms out there can enjoy this song on Mother's Day!

One song that is written by a mother from a mother's point of view that I love is called, "Small Piece of You" by Sara Groves. It is fun, a little tongue-in-cheek but true in many points... Childhood seems to go by like a blur...

So Happy Mother's Day all of the moms out there... enjoy this music!



Small Piece of You

By Sara Groves


I just want a small piece of you
a token to put in my pocket
and I will own that one things
and it would make me happy
I just want a small piece of you
somethin to put in a locket
and I will look at it daily
and that will make me happy



I guess it's human nature to want to hold you very still
I guess it's in a mother to inject a little guilt
Go on son and see the world; I hope you see it all
But please please please don't forget to call



Free to fly free to go free to not look back
That's how free I want you though it scares me half to death
Free to wander miles and miles and free to come back home
That's how free I want you though it chills me to the bone



...Go on son and spread your wings; I hope that you take flight
But please please please don't forget to write

I know you're just a baby sleeping in your bed
And you probably have other thoughts drifting through your head
I know this conversation's a little premature
It's just that I've heard eighteen years goes by like a blur



...I know that it's not fair for me to hold you down now is it
But please please please don't forget to visit

Free to fly free to go free to come back home...
