If I Was a Mom

If I had a daughter -

I would get her swim lessons, piano lessons, acting lessons, dance lessons and even horseback riding lessons.

I might even let her play soft ball, soccer on a co-ed team, volley ball, or run the track, or even cheer leading.

I would teach her to read and write, and science and math.  I would give her some paint and see what she might create.

I would give her the world, and then...

I would sit back and see just what she would CHOOSE to become.

If I had a son -

I would get him his first bike, a ball and a glove.  Swimming lessons, and horseback riding lessons. A tool set, a camera, and even a set of drums.

I might even let him take acting and dance classes, art and sewing lessons.

I would take him to little league, soccer practice, football tryouts and wrestling tournements.

I would teach him to read and write, and science and math.  I would give him some clay
and see what he might create.

I would give him the world, and then...

I would sit back and see just what he would CHOOSE to become.
