My Little Girl
I stand in the doorway and watch as she plays
Burning the image in my mind
I see glimpses of my baby girl
And I want to freeze this moment in time
As I look at her now I stand in awe
It really should come as no surprise
The good and the bad; a mirror image of me
I see myself reflected in her eyes
She may not understand
But the reality that I see
Is the very thing that draws me to my knees
I want her to know that I am nothing on my own
I am only what He created me to be
He gave her to me, but I am the one changed
She makes me want to be my best
I want her to know that it is only in HIS arms
That I find my strength and rest
She still lets me play the role; a part that makes me who I am
And I pray that will never end
Forever I will say I am blessed to be her Mom
Even more to be her friend
