• Apr. 27, 2008 - Happy Birthday Sweet Little Girl

Sweet Little Girl,
Sweet Little Girl
With curled up toes
and a button nose
Sweet Little Girl
Sweet Little Girl,
Sweet Little Girl
Her name is Emily
As cute as can be
Sweet Little Girl
11 years. I can hardly believe it. I saw so much in those eyes when she was born. I still do when I look at this picture. I see my grandmother now gone. I see an estranged father who I will never know or understand. I see myself. When I look at Emily now I don't see these things. I see her and wonder what she will be. I see a little girl on the edge of woman hood. I see a little girl who still loves to sit and play with her little animals making up stories. In some ways she will always be my little girl but it is a wonder to see her blossoming into a young lady and all the possibilities that will bring. I am amazed at how much she has grown and matured. I feel proud to call her my daughter. I wonder if she would recognize her little song that I sang to her when I rocked her. Maybe I will sing it to her tonight.
