What's the name of a children's book narrating a mom who sings to her son until he gets too big for her lap?

It starts off with the baby in the bathroom making a mess out of toilet paper. Instead of the mother getting mad, she picks him up and sings him a song. This continues throughout his entire life, until one day when the mother is very old, the son picks her up and sings her the same song.

"Love You Forever" by Robert Munsch

"The mother sings to her sleeping baby: "I'll love you forever / I'll love you for always / As long as I'm living / My baby you'll be." She still sings the same song when her baby has turned into a fractious 2-year-old, a slovenly 9-year-old, and then a raucous teen. So far so ordinary--but this is one persistent lady. When her son grows up and leaves home, she takes to driving across town with a ladder on the car roof, climbing through her grown son's window, and rocking the sleeping man in the same way. Then, inevitably, the day comes when she's too old and sick to hold him, and the roles are at last reversed. Each stage is illustrated by one of Sheila McGraw's comic and yet poignant pastels"

I think it's the book your talking about. It is also the same book that Joey read to Emma for her first birthday, on FRIENDS.





It goes.."I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always...As long as I'm living, My baby you'll be".
