FOR MY DAUGHTER ADRIA
PRECIOUS
Children are a precious gift
Heaven sent from God above,
For parents to nurture and care for
To cherish and to love.

They are special from their birth
All children are a treasure,
They love their parents without question
A love that can't be measured.

In my daughter I have found
A soul that's tender and kind,
A child with wisdom beyond her years
For such a very young mind.

I try to be there for her
A shoulder or an ear,
To listen when it's needed
To lean on or shed a tear.

The years have passed so quickly
Each day it seems so strange,
To me she's still my little girl
Even with so much change.

She doesn't mind hanging out with mom
I've never heard her complain,
I guess that it just goes to show
Somethings never change.

Some day my baby will be grown
With a family of her own,
But she knows that no matter what
She'll always have a home.

I hope that she takes with her
Family values we've instilled,
The morals, to know what's right or wrong
The foundation on which to build.

To know she's loved above all else
By dad, mom, and her brothers,
A love whose bond can never break
And is reserved for one another.
