Michael was such a happy child
We always called him smiley
He loved playing his guitar
Singing Beatles songs
(When he was just 2 years old)
The girls went to horse riding lessons
Michael and I would wait in the car
One day I let him pretend to drive
Standing on the driver's seat
Pushing all the buttons on the old radio!
I'd seen him watching me start the car
Those little eyes taking it all in!
I was tired this day and closed my eyes
Just for a few minutes
Sitting in the passenger seat
Suddenly he'd got the keys from the dash board
Put the key in the ignition and
Started the car! The music blared!
The car jolted forward! He was crying!
He'd scared himself so much!
My little smiley!
