I got this from my MOM she's the best.
HAPPY 39th !BIRTHDAY TO MY BEAUTIFUL VICKI!
ON FRIDAY, JUNE 5TH @ 6:52 am, I GAVE BIRTH TO A BEAUTIFUL BABY GIRL. AND WE NAMED YOU VICKI JEANNE.
HERE IS A BEAUTIFUL STORY THAT IS VERY VERY TOUCHING. I'VE HAD IT FOR YEARS AND JUST RAN ACROSS IT AND I WANTED TO SHARE WITH YOU!!
TO MY GROWN-UP DAUGHTER
My hands were busy through the day.
I didn't have much time to play
The little games you asked me to,
I didn't have much time for you.
I'd wash your clothes; I'd sew and cook,
But when you'd bring your picture book
And ask me, please, to share your fun,
I'd say, "A little later, hon."
I'd tuck you in all safe at night,
And hear your prayers, turn out the light,
Then tiptoe softly to the door,
I wish I'd stayed a minute more.
For life is short, and years rush past,
A little girl grows up so fast,
No longer is she at your side,
Her precious secrets to confide.
The picture books are put away,
There are no children's games to play,
No goodnight kiss, no prayers to hear,
That all belongs to yesteryear.
My hands once busy, now lie still,
The days are long and hard to fill,
I wish I might go back and do,
The little things you asked me to.
I Love You Very Much... You ARE my little girl!!!
Your Momma
