Confirmation that I am my father's daughter
A picture unfolds with a child running around the table
The light from the window hits her just right
You can see the sparkle in her eyes and the natural highlights
Proud looks come from granny and mom
as her grandpa picks her up, and carries her in his arms
Granny says
I was always under the impression
when I was young , that if I didn't do it
It would not have been done
If someone did it better, look out because here I come
Now your dad on the other hand Was all about the chill
Nonchalant even balance he never expresses much fear
Quiet strength which I grew to depend on so much
He will always reign me in, when I get out of touch
I always thought you were more like me
But now that your a mom, your more like your dad definitely
The daughter sighed with relief and with a turned up smile
She said good because my three other siblings
convinced me
that I was the milk man's child
