Know
This My Daughter
Today
is very special for a mother and a bride,
And
as we share this special day I'm so filled with pride.
For
years I watched you growing up and always on the go,
And
as we share this day there's something you should know.
You've
always been a head strong child, determined and secure.
Your
attitude about your life was always strong and sure.
You
reached for life and wanted it to be all it could be,
And
I just want to tell you what your life has meant to me.
A
mother's love is special and one day you'll understand,
When
you have your child and you hold his little hand.
At
first it may seem scary because you're responsible,
For
a little life that you have brought into this world.
But
as they share your life with you then slowly you will see,
And
then you'll finally understand how much you mean to me.
When
you are a mother and see through a mother's eyes,
Then
you'll know the love I feel and then you'll realize.
How
very much I've loved you since you came into this world,
When
I first held you in my arms, my little baby girl.
I
looked into your little face and felt a love so strong,
And
one day you will finally see when children come along,
My
little girl is grown up now and more determined still,
To
grab all life will have for her but this is how I feel.
You'll
always be my little girl - my precious shining star,
And
I'm so very proud of you because of who you are.
So
now you are a woman and as you start life anew,
Remember
that the love I have will always be with you.
This
is a new beginning and your future's in your clutch,
Just
remember this - your mother loves you very much.
