Once there was the cutest little boy

Who now is a handsome young man

And best of all he is so smart

He has an answer for everything

I look at him my eyes filled with pride

He smiles and says

Gee mom get a life

For many years you are the only one

You are his mom

He is you little man

And than it happens the day has arrived

The other woman comes into his life

He talks on the phone for hours at a time

You need call waiting or a second line

He takes a shower without a fuss

He asks for a haircut

He changes his socks

The days of complaining and nagging are gone

He talks all night to his new girl on the phone…
