As I Watch You Sleeping

As I Watch You Sleeping ~ Sheryl Trowbridge

As I watch you sleeping,

my problems seem so small.

The rewards you have to offer me,

are so big and so tall.


As I watch you sleeping,

I realize just how great your accomplishments are.

I know how much you struggle

to have made it this far.


As I watch you sleeping,

I can't imagine how my life would be without you.

Even through the hard times

I'd be lost without you.


As I watch you sleeping,

I see just how much you have brought into my life.

All the joys and happiness,

all the wonder and excitement.


As I watch you sleeping,

I am overcome with such love.

Your sweetness and happiness,

are something I can't get enough of.


As I watch you sleeping,

I think just how lucky I am.

To be the mother of such

a beautiful little girl.


As I watch you sleeping,

all of my worries seem to melt away.

I know that no matter what happens,

together we can make it through another day.
