Children Learn What They Live

If a child lives with criticism,

they learn to condemn.

If a child lives with hostility,

they learn to fight.

If a child lives with ridicule,

they learn to be shy . . .


God Bless The Children

May God, who loves all children

in a very tender way,

Protect and guide you

with His care, day after day . . .


My Sweet Child

Though you're not flesh of my flesh nor bone of my bone,

I proudly consider you to be my own . . .


On Your Arrival

You're a very precious person

so this brings

a special prayer . . .


Lay Me Down To Sleep (Version 1)

Now I lay me down to sleep.

I pray Thee, Lord, my soul to keep . . .


Lay Me Down To Sleep (Version 2)

Now I lay me down to sleep.

I pray Thee, Lord, my soul to keep.

If I should die before I wake . . .


Our Precious Twins

There's two to wash, there's two to dry,

There's two to argue, there's two to cry.

One's in the mud having a ball,

The other has a crayon -

just look at the wall . . .


My Precious Twins

There's two to wash, there's two to dry,

There's two to argue, there's two to cry.

One's in the mud having a ball,

The other has a crayon -

just look at the wall . . .


My Precious Niece

My dear and precious niece

You're more than words can say.

And you just get dearer

every passing day . . .


My Niece

May God, who loves all children

in a very tender way,

Protect and guide you, my niece,

with His care, day after day . . .


My Nephew

May God, who loves all children

in a very tender way,

Protect and guide you, my nephew,

with His care, day after day . . .
