Do You Want to Come and Snuggle

So, every where I look I see different versions of "Do You Want to Build a Snowman" (if you don't know what that is, you need to watch Frozen.)  After seeing a few versions, I decided to write a version of my own.  What I ended up writing was not what I had originally pictured in my head, but when I sat down to write it, it just kinda poured out.  I meant to write a funny version, I even had one of the lines in my head for a few days.  This one though, it truly meant something, made me feel something.  It highlights every moms desire to have their babies stay babies just a little longer, to want to sit still and be held just a few more minutes.  Little ones grow up so very fast, we need to focus on each beautiful moment with them and make it count.  So moms (and dads) whether your little one/s are still very small, or grown up and having babies of their own, this one is for you. Enjoy!

"Do You Want to Come and Snuggle?" (To the tune of "Do You Want to Build a Snowman?")

Do you want to come and snuggle?
Or ride my back like a horsey?
You never cuddle anymore,
You’re out the door, running around like crazy!

You used to be so snuggly,
And now you’re not.
I think that I know why...

Do you want to come and snuggle?
Come on sit down and snuggle.
Please just try.

Do you want to come and snuggle?
Mom wants to hold you close,
I think some cuddling is overdue,
I’ve started talking to the teddies on the couch!
“Is that right, Pooh?”

It gets a little lonely,
Sitting here alone
Watching you run and play.

Please, I know you want to
Mommies snuggles are the best
You say “I’m busy” and I understand
You’re growing up, becoming independent
I love you more than life itself,
And when you’re all grown up,
What am I gonna do?

Do you want to come and snuggle?
