To my girl that grew and grew
Who taught me things I never knew
About how good it can be
To spend some time with family
The laughs we have the smiles you make
And that parenthood is about give and take
I'll always be here whether you need me or not
Because I am your dad and I love you a lot
And as you grow older you bring more sass
And at times I want to kick your...
Ask me a question, I'll answer if I can
I have you to thank for the proud man that I am
Years pass by and moments pass
The joy I feel when I see my little lass
You're amazing you're beautiful you're growing so fast
The next set of teeth will be there longer, I promise they'll last
The things you do because you are you
I see in myself, because I am you
Keep working hard, be good and kind
And life will be great and that you will find
I'll be the bricks and you be the mortar
Here for you always my dearest daughter
Dad 13th August 2017
