Be a Ninja with a Heart
There’s nothing more moving than to clean up behind your kids (as we do every damn day) and stumble upon something (tucked deep under a pillow) that so genuinely reflects who they are at that singular moment in time. A gentle note of reminder to that lazy tooth fairy who somehow forgot to show up several nights in a row. A crayon drawing of all five siblings in size order – plus an unidentified sixth child grinning from ear to ear. A not-so-nice note about mommy being a Mean-y-Pants and Papa being a Stupid Grownup. A song, beautifully and slowly written by your son – about his grit and endless heart.
Ninga (Ninja)
I might be a ninga
But I got a hart
I be tough
But I got a hart
I’m like that
From the start
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Babby eho Babby eho
My legs as hard as steel
I’m not despicable
Oh no Oh yes Oh no Oh yes
