My Daughter

My daughter

Bringing you home was a very special day,
Tiny little hand and tiny little feet, a face that always yawn
So precious it was to hear you talk, walk and run
Running after you became grandma's 10k run.

Taking you to your first day of school
Watching you have so much fun
Learning in life never really ends
I guess you're never really done.

You learn at school from books,
From fairy tales to fiction to non-fiction.
You learn from life by reality
Your family and friends become an addiction

We are very proud of you,
Your goals may change in life everyday.
Whenever you are lost or frustrated,
All you need to do is, pray.

We are and always will be there for you,
There will be good days and bad
Times change like seasons,
But, we will always be, your mom and dad.

We love you very much,
Our love will not always show.
We will always be there to guide you,
We just wanted you to know.
