i wan't to wear deep blue
denim overalls like you daddy
big and wide and cool
i want to wear a beard as big like yours
and be big too
some things that happen
like my shadow on the floor
hide my trying to be bigger
like you daddy.
some things that happen
make me cry
like a sore toe
and a big brother
when i'm biggest like you daddy
i'll be bigger than the
some things that happen,
like brothers and toes
and shadows,
won't i daddy?
won't i?

i have had six three year old children so far. but my three year old son and i are identifying a lot of life circumstances in similar ways right now. i think that is a good thing. it is always curious to me the language of being three. i tired to capture that here without clouding it too much with my 'bigger' language. and in so doing i found myself expressing a prayer larger than my own 'big' words could have. cheers -A.S.
