Happy almOst birthday, baby lOve...
a flower in bloom
or a rainbow parading across the skies
would both wither and fade
should they challenge the twinkle in your eyes
your radiant smile
your whimsical laugh
could convince me to do anything
on your behalf
no sweeter sounds
have ever been heard
than your echoing footsteps
or your delightful new words
within your small hands
you hold dearly that which cannot be seen
for i give you my heart and my hopes
in return you inspire me to dream
as i gaze at you proudly
i recall just how much you've grown
i look to the future with optimism
rejoicing in all that is unknown
what will your next year bring?
what lies ahead for you to accomplish?
with your assertive little spirit
the answer is anything you wish
so take on the world
with one step or word at a time
flash it your smile
dazzle it with the glimmer in your eyes
as you conquer new feats
one sure thing will remain
my love for you will know no end
basking in each beautiful day filled with you, sunshine or rain

Did you write this??!! I read it before, but didn't have time to comment. You are such an amazing writer. Hmm...when is YOUR book coming out?! I'm sure it's totally written in your head... ;)
This one made me laugh, Nicole (the part about it being written in my head)! Yes, a book would be such an accomplishment... hopefully one day, my friend, I'll be able to add it to the lists of dreams made into reality! :) Thanks for your comment!!!
