Firsts
It seems like yesterday we first met
I held you in my hands and knew you were safe
You put your head on my chest and drifted into complete silence
As you grew in strength you grew in independence
You listened intently as so you could speak your own voice
Unable to witness your first step you ran all over me
You are my first greatest anything
I love you
