Happy, Happy Mother's Day!




Where are you going my little one, little one
Where are you going my baby my own
Turn around and you're two, turn around and you're four
Turn around and you're a young girl going out of the door
Turn around
Turn around
Turn around and you're a young girl
going out of the door







Where are you going my little one, little one
Little dirndls and petticoats, where have you gone
Turn around and you're tiny, turn around and you're grown
Turn around and you're a young wife with babes of your own
Turn around, turn around, turn around and you're a young wife with babes of your own



Where are you going my little one, little one
Where are you going my baby my own




My mom mentioned one day that this song reminded her of me. I love the words. There is also a MoTab version and a Kenny Loggins version that are really pretty. That is how I sometimes feel about my own kids...turn around and you're two...turn around and you're four. It goes fast! It is amazing how much more I love and appreciate her as time goes on. I realize how much work it all was and is and it makes you appreciate even more.
Happy Mother's Day!

P.S. Not sure why the kids look so grumpy in the D.Land picture since they are obsessed with that place. When you are usually the one taking all the pictures, it is hard to find one with you in it!
