Happy Birthday to My Daughter

I loved you the moment I first thought of you
And even more when you were born
And all through your infancy and childhood
I tried to keep you safe and warm.
I loved each tiny baby moment
And loved watching you each day
As you tried out something new
Learning as you would play.
I loved the toddler stages
And thought each day better than the one before
As I wondered about the future
And what your life would have in store.
I treasured each moment of your teenage years
Even those days when we disagreed
And tried to keep in touch with your age group
As to what were your wants and needs.
I missed you when you went to college
But I knew that it was good for you
I loved seeing you blossom and grow
As you became more and more "You".
I cried when you had heartbreaks
And prayed all night may a night
Asking God to keep you in His arms
And let things turn out all right.
I applauded in delight at your successes
And gave thanks to God above
For the blessings He gave to you
And for giving us the perfect daughter to love.
Love,
Mom

Sweeeeetness to my eyes. Our children are perfect to us, just as we are to Christ. Word.

She is one lucky daughter,
God Bless.
