I am from toys and diapers
from saturday cartoons and watch-your-sister (get you two a snack and start on your homework) I am from dance recitals, football games, and please-eat-your-vegetables I am from children's night lights and reading the textbook by their glow doing homework on the bus in the church, in the car I am from study just-a-little-bit-longer I am from singing in the car, in rehearsal, in the shower I am from read the music, play the notes, sing louder, more vibrato, watch your tone I am from a lot of things I am from test tubes, hot plates, and lab coats But I am also from work boots, table saw, and ladders And I am from flags, smiles, and hairspray I am from supportive family Value of education And high expectation I am from work, work, work From do it better than you think it needs to be one I am from love for who you are the way you are From hugs that feel like a visit to the chiropractor's office From ask you how you’re doing And really listen to what you say I am from trustworthy confident No judgement No blame I am from leave it better than you found it Be respectful If it need to be done, you could do it
