Before You Turn One

The night before Callie turned one, I snuck into her bedroom and took some pictures of her sleeping...


... then I went downstairs and wrote her this poem:


TO MY BABY-- THE NIGHT BEFORE YOU TURN ONE

As this day comes to an end,
Your very first year does too.
So many memories filled with joy,
And others when we hadn't a clue.

We've had some special time you and I,
You rarely let me out of your sight.
I'm glad to give the love you need,
T'was a pleasure to make you feel right.

This year to come, you'll grow even more,
My baby no more will you be.
But I can't forget the bond we've made,
These days when you've relayed on me.
