Happy Birthday Baby Girl, Love Daddy

Published by Family Friend Poems September 2011 with permission of the Author.

Just when he thought he had it all
His wife, his sons, his perfect world

Then he met his baby girl

Her mother's eyes and daddy's smile
A light within the sun would rival

Today she's four, it's gone too fast
How can I stop the clocks and make this last?

How can such a small voice capture my soul
and every small scratch take such a toll?

She's raised the stakes, her brothers and I are on high alert
praying she'll never learn how to flirt

And if she does, it will change my whole world
Trying to keep her MY baby girl

Happy Birthday Baby Girl, Love Daddy
