Every Day

Bushy hair and a gummy smile
You made my life so worthwhile
I held you close, it’s not a cliché
I will always love you every day

A little girl with grit and spunk
Too many toys crammed in the trunk
Barbies and puzzles to fill your room
Watching your flower start to bloom

Strong and determined was in your heart
I was always proud right from the start
Bragged to the world, this I convey
I love you more every day

I know there are times when we are apart
And I say things that aren’t so smart
It tears me up, to not have you here
Know this for sure, my love is sincere

So now as you age, I give you some space
And let you decide to set the pace
My door will be open and never decay
Cause I love you dearly every day
