Poem help

[Wumpy]

When I Had my first DC a friend of mine sent me a poem ( well, more of a paragraph really) writen by a mum to her daughter who was planning on becoming a mum. It was all about the highs and lows of being a mum, wacthing them learn to ride a bike etc...

A friend of mum had just become a mum and i would love to send it to her.

Trouble is i have lost it now. I have googled but i cant remember what it was called.

Could anyone help please...

Thanks

Bumping for you.

This isn't the poem you;ve described but it's one that my mum gave me when I had my DS . It always brings a lump to my throat

Go to sleep, Mum
I won't stop breathing
suddenly in the night

Go to sleep,
I won't climb out of my cot and
tumble downstairs

Mum, I won't swallow
the pills the doctor gave you or
put hairpins in electric
sockets, just go to sleep

I won't cry
when you take me to school and leave me:
I'll be happy with other children
my own age.

Sleep, Mum, sleep.
I won't
fall in the pond, play with matches,
run under a lorry or even consider
sweets from strangers.

No, I won't
give you a lot of lip,
not like some.

I won't sniff glue,
Fail all my exams,
Get myself/
My girlfriend pregnant.
I'll work hard and get a steady/
really worthwhile job.
I promise, go to sleep.

I'll never forget
to drop in/phone/write
and if
I need any milk, I'll yell

-Lullaby by Rosemary Norman

Thanks Charlie thats sweet and very true.

Thanks for bumping puzzlerocks.

I am gutted that I cant find the orignal poem. It must be in the internet somewhere, just dont know who wrote it and have no idea what to search for.

I just found it. Googled being a mum.

Glad you found.

Wumpy I've read that before, but even for the second time I have tears rolling down my face. It's just lovely and so true.

I hope your friend likes it
