I recieived a gift on that Summer day
Of which I know I could never repay,
Just as God came down to say
He just gave one of his Angels away.
Little did I know, the test this would be
To prove to him and make him see,
This Angel was my destiny
That, I know, is a guarantee
To hold her forever and never stray
To be there to comfort her pain away,
To see her through the roughest day
And teach her new things along the way
God gave me the greatest gift of all time
She is now apart of my generation line
This precious little girl is really all mine
What a blessing she is, I could never define
As I watch her sleep, it becomes clear to see
How time stands still when she is next to me
Soon she will no longer fit on my knee
But to my heart she holds the key
Now watching each day as she grows
Her changing of features from head to toe
The smiles and gigiles that make her glow
And the way she lets her personality show
So I'll make a promise to you now
To raise you the best that I know how
To teach you to be confident and proud
I know you will succeed and stand above the crowd.
I love you so much Princess,
~ Mommy
