You Can Do It

A lullaby for Mehrzad

You Can Do It

You can do it,

You can do it

Anything, Anything,

You can do anything.

All it takes is determination…

If you’ll try try, try again…

If you try again and again

You will find…

You can do anything at all.

I composed this lyric and set it to music for my son when he was a toddler.

Thank you.

An affirmative poem, which most children don't get to hear, today. I wish, my mom was as pro-active, for me, as you're, for your son, Momzilla. Thank you, for sharing this part of your life, with us.

[MomzillaNC]

Thanks. This is actually a little song I made up for him. I used to sing it all the time for him. Now, he's a little embarrassed by it. The last time I sang it, he asked me not to any more. :D

[therisa]

Your welcome. I can understand, why he has asked you, to stop. But the love, is still there, for him.

[MomzillaNC]

Yeah, he's just decided he's too big for all those little ditties I composed for him. Sigh…

[therisa]

Just wait, until you dig out the photo albums......those I want to burn

[MomzillaNC]

Actually, he loves the photo albums. Of course, he hasn't brought home a girlfriend with whom I've shared them with yet.

[therisa]

Oh that's evil, Momzilla.

[MomzillaNC]

Every loving mother's prerogative.

[therisa]

Am so glad that I am passed that stage, in my life. ;P

[MomzillaNC]

IDKAT. My gran was still showing embarrassing baby pictures of my mom when she was in her 80s and my mom was in her 60s. For that matter, she made a point of showing them to my husband when she met him the first time when I was 28 (we married at 28).

[therisa]

Dang, that one mean gran, or a very proud one, who loves her children and grandchildren.

[MomzillaNC]

Mean gran's don't even keep the pictures.

[therisa]

Don't have much experience, with either of my grandmothers, sharing photos of the family. But, on my dad's side, you brought home, your BF or GF, to meet the family and get the nod of approval. I got 26 first cousins.

[MomzillaNC]

I didn't get the approval first. I was rather worried he wouldn't marry me if he met my family first! :D

[therisa]

I can understand, your feelings, Momzilla.

[Matching Socks]

Wow, that's awesome.
Have you heard the Hedley song?

Warning, it has the F word...

[MomzillaNC]

I haven't heard it. I'll try to remember to check it another time. My son is over my shoulder just now.

[Matching Socks]

Good call... :)

[Tina Louise UK]

I agree! Upilifting piece :) x

[MomzillaNC]

Thanks. It's just a silly little ditty, but he used to love it.
