Touching The Future

I don’t wear power suits, make speeches, or drive a fancy sports car.

I’ve never talked on a car phone, made a big sale,

Or been elected to the Senate.

I don’t “do lunch”, have a big impressive office

Or carry a beeper.

I spend my days wiping away tears, giving hugs,

and serving chicken nuggets.

A good day is when I go trough a whole day without a temper tantrum,

bite mark or a toilet training accident.

My “office” is a room full of brightly colored toys and laughing children.

You may not think that what I do is very important

and you may even whisper behind by back

“What a waste of a good mind.”

But I know better.

I make a difference because I’m changing the world one child at a time

Everyday I’m getting the once in a lifetime chance to touch the future.

I’m proud to say, “I’m a child care Provider”.
