There she was this little girl,
Brought to us by Mum and Dad,
Our sixth grandchild.
The pictures we had seen
Did not do her justice,
This beautiful baby.
Five months since her birth,
And here she was with us,
Smiling at us all,
Smiling at all around her.
She looked all over
Absorbing knowledge,
Her face full of wonder.
Her new life of intrigue,
Her new life of wonder.
Her amazing parents
So very happy,
So very happy together,
So very happy with their child.
A complete family
Who will travel life’s highway
With joy,
And with love,
The love that shines out from them,
Out from them all.
To them all I give them my love,
I give them my time,
I give them the knowledge
That The Spirit will be with them,
And My Spirit will always be with them
Caring for all they do,
As their lives move forward,
Move forward into the light.
