My baby "B"

Author: Unknown

it seems like a long time has passed
to long, not long enough
life moves to fast

when did you start to talk that way
whats his name and what does he say?

seems like yesterday I was your world
to me your still my little girl

I heard you say you love him
then you said he loved you too
what am I gonna do
what is love to you

is it passing a love letter
holding hands between a class
making faces together through glass

has he held your hand for 27 hours in the ICU
would he truly die for you?
he could be the best guy in the world
but I'm scared to lose my little girl

I know its a matter of time
and I still have awhile to go
but I want you to know

I love you with everything in me
all I want is for you to be happy
and you will always be my baby "B"

-love,Daddy

About this poem:

My little girl told me she loved a 3rd grader tonight and that he loved her too, it just got me thinking a little, life and time are so limited, live it up!!!

"My little girl told me she loved a 3rd grader tonight and that he loved her too,...."

Out of the mouths of babes :)

The man she eventually gravitates towards will be a direct reflection of the father you have been to her. If there's something you'd like to do differently in your role as father, or in providing her the most positive experience of what it means to truly be loved by a male, do it now.

If not, then simply rejoice!
