Everything for the children.

Everything for the children,
as long as they can laugh,
instead of cry,
showered by positive attention and love and unconditional care and understanding in the form of
a prompt and adequate reaction, a listening ear, a hug, a pat on the back, a hand through their hair, a compliment, a smile, a playmate, a fun day.

Everything for the children,
as long as they can go to bed happy and satisfied
and wake up to another day, with a smile on their face.
As long as they can feel free,
free to be themselves
and do not need to feel restrained or ashamed,
As long as they can just be themselves
and have the opportunity (and godforgiven right)  to play.

Everything for the children,
As long as they can be happy and carefree.
As long they can simply be children,
because that's what they're supposed to be.

Everything for the children,
these wonderful, amazing and pure little persons,
with tiny hands and tiny feet,
that with unconditional love and care will grow into beautiful people.


Everything for the children!

Translated version of the orginal Dutch version Alles, alles, alles.
