You will always be...



You will always be my baby/And we’ll linger on/Cause time can’t erase a feeling this strong/No, you’re never gonna shake me/Oooh, cause you’ll always be my baby,” I sang to my baby, as I rocked her in my arms.

"When I turn five, I won’t be your baby anymore,” she declared, ruining the moment.

“When you’re five, you’ll still be my baby.”

“When I turn eighteen, I won’t be your baby.”

“When you turn eighteen, you will still my baby.”

"When I a mommy, I won’t be your baby.”

“When you’re a mommy, when you have grandchildren and are a Oma, you will still be my baby.  You will always be my baby.”

And since she couldn’t top that, the conversation ended.  She laid her head back on my shoulder and I sang my beloved Mariah Carey chorus again to her as I rubbed her back and nuzzled her, my baby.
