Yuan even requested that we do that more often because according to him it’s really fun. They didn’t even whine when I took them out in the water which they usually do after bathing. And I thought it’s a good way to start the day with such an exciting activity.
The song that played in my mind the moment I saw them enjoying the water is “Let them be little” by Billy Dean. Oh, it’s one of my favorite songs which really inspire me to enjoy the moment with them on their childhood days because they’re only that way for a while. I also sing this song to them and they love it especially when they see the baby on the video. Here’s the video of the song which you can play: (updated on 9/24/2010)
The lyric of the song are as follows:
LET THEM BE LITTLE
I can remember when you fit in the palm of my hand
You felt so good in it; no bigger than a minute
How it amazes me you’re changin’ with every blink
Faster than a flower blooms, they grow up all too soon
So let them be little,
‘Cause they’re only that way for a while
Give ‘em hope, give them praise,
Give them love every day
Let ‘em cry, let ‘em giggle,
Let ‘em sleep in the middle,
Oh, but let them be little
I never felt so much in one little tender touch.
I live for those kisses, your prayers and your wishes
And now you’re teachin’ me how only a child can see
Tonight, while we’re on our knees, All I ask is:
Please, let them be little,
‘Cause they’re only that way for a while
Give them hope, give them praise,
Give them love every day
Let ‘em cry, let ‘em giggle,
Let ‘em sleep in the middle,
Oh, but let them be little
The so innocent, precious soul:
You turn around, and it’s time to let them go
So let them be little,
‘Cause they’re only that way for a while
Give them hope, give ‘em praise,
Give them love every day
Let ‘em cry, let ‘em giggle,
Let them sleep in the middle,
Oh, but let them be little
Let them be little

Fun photos! Kids really look forward to bath time. My son has a number of bath toys in our bathroom.
I like the name Yuan. In fact was one of the names we considered for our son but ended up with Yohan (a version of Johann).
Thanks for visiting my blog. It's always nice to meet new and interesting people. I'll come back here to read more.
Hi Rachel,
Welcome to my site and thank you so much for dropping by...Yeah, we're considering buying some bath toys for them.
That's what cross in my mind when I visited your site...muntik ng maging yuan un name na yohan.
I'm enjoying this blogging thing since I started last week. I didn't imagine that meeting new friends in the net is really fun and exciting..added bonus pa un marami kang nalalaman na mga bagay bagay na di mo pa alam.
Thank you again and God bless you always!
