Cute As a Button

Cute as a Button (for girls)

(Darla Mae Seely)

  I look at your cute little nose
  And how you wiggle your toes.
  I love how you smile at me.
  You're cute as a button, don't you agree?

  I look at the darling clothes you wear
  And the tiny bow in your hair.
  You seem to say to me,
 "I'm as cute as I can be."

 You're cute as a button, yes, you are.
 You were sent to earth from heaven afar.
 I love you, niece/daughter/etc. I hope you know.
 I will always tell you so.
