Their wide eyes twinkle
Button noses wrinkle
They grasp my hair so playfully

They babble on about their day
Staring at me as we lay
I thank God for what he gave to me

Loving hands trace tiny lips
My whole world at my fingertips
I wonder how I ever lived without them

I hold them gently
Listening intently
I want to know everything about them

Lighting my life as it quickly shifted
They are the sun I never knew existed
The reason for the fight I found in me

My once dream within a dream
My heart bursting at the seams
Taking every breath right out of me

They are every path I took, never knowing where they leaded

They are every single thing I never knew I needed.

They are what my life was always supposed to be.

An endless love, my daughter's, and me.
