I love you more than you will ever know.

Far more than I’ll ever be able to show.

I held you tight when you were born, so tiny and frail.

Such a perfect sight, it filled me with utter delight.

I saw you open your eyes so bright,

They were filled with the purest light.

I heard your voice when you screamed and wailed.

I thought my heart would surely fail.

I watched you learn, I watched you grow.

Was there when you needed to know.

How to walk, how to crawl.

We laughed and played, had such a ball,

Even when you would fall.

I picked you up and hugged you tight.

You were my shining light.

Now you growing up so fast,

I wished you’d stay small but was not to last.

But no matter how big you grow,

My love for you, my children, will never slow
