My Spring Flower

SHE GENTLY TIPTOES  OVER THE MELTING MORNING DEW, COVERING THE SEEDLINGS.  CAREFUL AND GRACEFUL ARE EACH STEP, AS THE SUN CASTS A SWEET GLOW ON HER FACE.
WITH MY CAT IN ONE HAND AND A FLOWER FOR YOU, SHE LOOKS AT ME AND SOFTLY SAYS, "MOMMA", I LOVE YOU!
WELL, NOT REALLY, BECAUSE SHE'S ONLY TWO, BUT I HEAR THOSE WORDS IN MY HEART EVERY TIME I HOLD YOU.
MY SWEET CHILD, YOU ARE SO PRECIOUS IN EVERY WAY;
YOUR SWEET SMILE, GENTLE HUGS AND PERSONALITY
ARE ATTRIBUTES I LOOK FORWARD TO EVERY DAY!



YES PRETTY CHILD, SO MANY ADORE AND LOVE YOU!  IT IS A GIFT TO BEHOLD THE LOVE YOU SHARE WITH OTHERS.
YOU STAND STEADFAST AND DETERMINED TO LEARN THIS BIG WORLD AROUND YOU.   
AND YOU ARE, BABY DOLL, YOU ARE!
THE DOORS TO WISDOM, TRUTH AND HUMILITY, ARE ALWAYS OPEN, IT'S  THE PATHS WE TAKE THAT LEAD US TO WHERE WE WILL BE.

SO IF YOU'RE EVER AT A CROSS ROAD, AND WONDER WHICH WAY TO GO, REACH INSIDE YOUR HEART, AND REMEMBER MY WORDS...AND BABY, YOU WILL KNOW!

Okay, I know stop rhyming already!  I was just going to post these pictures and suddenly got an urge to write, Yikes, when I read it, I feel like I just wrote some lyrics to a bad country love song (no offense to country music, it's one of my fav's).
However, I don't get the chance to express my feelings for this child these days, since she keeps me on my toes, so I thought I just let the photos inspire me.
And she does inspire me!
