in family & friends who are family
how could we have known, oh beautiful girl,
when we learned of your coming
just how much we would love you
and yike you
how could we have known, oh precious child,
how are lives would be changed
by baby curls and little girl delights

to see the world through your sparkling eyes

full of wonder
and delight

oh, little princess {rapunzel, cinderella, tinkerbell, sweeping byooty}

you are pure joy personified

just when i think i couldn’t love you any more,
my heart bursts

i would lasso the moon to hear you laugh,
wrestle a tiger for you to ‘hold me’
and swim the sky to kiss your sweet face

i cannot believe you are {three whole years old}

no longer a baby but such a BIG GIRL!

so smart and so sweet
full of questions {and answers}

how i adore you,
precious, beautiful, wonderful
CHILD OF THE MOST HIGH KING

*our double portion*
my cup is full
and it runneth over

with love for you, sweet child
