Just for this morning... / In dimineata asta...

o prietena draga a postat cindva aceste randuri pe care eu le-am tradus... autorul lor este necunoscut:

Just for this morning, I am going to step over the laundry, and pick you up and take you to the park to play.

Just for this morning, I will leave the dishes in the sink, and let you teach me how to put that puzzle of yours together.

Just for this afternoon, I will unplug the telephone and keep the computer off, and sit with you in the backyard and blow bubbles.

Just for this afternoon, I will not yell once, not even a tiny grumble when you scream and whine for the ice cream truck, and I will buy you one if he comes by.

Just for this afternoon, I won't worry about what you are going to be when you grow up, or second guess every decision I have made where you are concerned.

Just for this afternoon, I will let you help me bake cookies, and I won't stand over you trying to fix them.

Just for this afternoon, I will take us to McDonald's and buy us both a Happy Meal so you can have both toys.

Just for this evening, I will hold you in my arms and tell you a story about how you were born and how much I love you.

Just for this evening, I will let you splash in the tub and not get angry.

Just for this evening, I will let you stay up late while we sit on the porch and count all the stars.

Just for this evening, I will snuggle beside you for hours, and miss my favorite TV shows.

Just for this evening when I run my finger through your hair as you pray, I will simply be grateful that God has given me the greatest gift ever given.

I will think about the mothers and fathers who are searching for their missing children, the mothers and fathers who are visiting their children's graves instead of their bedrooms, and mothers and fathers
who are in hospital rooms watching their children suffer senselessly, and screaming inside that they can't handle it anymore.

And when I kiss you good night I will hold you a little tighter, a little longer. It is then, that I will thank God for you, and ask him for nothing, except one more day...

In dimineata asta am sa renunt sa spal rufe si am sa te iau sa mergem in parc sa ne jucam.

In dimineata asta am sa las vasele nespalate in chiuveta si am sa te las sa ma inveti cum sa facem puzzle-uri impreuna.

In dupa-amiaza asta voi scoate telefonul din priza si voi tine computerul inchis, si voi sta cu tine in gradina sa facem balonase de sapun.

In dupa-amiaza asta nu am sa ridic vocea nici un moment si nu am sa fiu iritata cind tu strigi si miorlai dupa masinuta cu inghetata, dar iti voi cumpara una daca se apropie de noi.

In dupa-amiaza asta nu ma va preocupa ce vei deveni cand vei fi mare, si nici nu voi re-analiza fiecare decizie a mea in ce te priveste.

In dupa-amiaza asta te voi lasa sa ma ajuti la prajituri si nu te voi impiedica sa le aranjezi singur.

In dupa-amiaza asta te voi duce la McDonald's si voi cumpara pentru amindoi Happy Meal, ca tu sa ai doua jucarii.

In seara asta te voi tine in brate si-ti voi spune o poveste despre cum te-ai nascut, si-ti voi spune cit de mult TE IUBESC.

In seara asta te voi lasa sa imprastii apa din cada si nu ma voi enerva.

In seara asta te voi lasa sa stai treaz pina tirziu, cit timp stam pe terasa si numaram stelele.

In seara asta ma voi cuibari linga tine ore intregi si voi renunta la emisiunile TV preferate.

In seara asta , cind iti voi mingiia parul cu degetele in timp ce tu te rogi, ii voi multumi lui Dumnezeu pentru ca mi-a daruit cel mai pretios dar oferit vreodata.

Ma voi gindi la parintii care-si cauta copiii disparuti, la parintii care viziteaza mormintul in locul dormitorului, la parintii care-si vegheaza copii suferinzi in spitale, indurerati ca nu le pot alinta cu nimic suferinta.

Si cind te voi saruta de noapte buna, te voi tine in brate un pic mai strins, un pic mai mult. Iar apoi ii voi multumi lui Dumnezeu pentru tine si-l nu-i voi cere nimic altceva, decit o alta zi...
