We’re here to give your life its start –
We’re here to hold you in our arms and heart.
We’re here to care for your needs that arise –
And a great deal more than you realize.

To listen when you feel like talking –
To laugh at the fun things you say –
To cry with you in life’s disappointments –
And to guide you to happy days.

No matter how serious your problems, don’t hold them back in fear –
For moms and Dads are for helping you solve them –
That is the reason we’re here.
