You came into my life unannounced,
So tiny, so cute, not weighing more than 3 pounds
I didn't know if I was ready yet
To face all the care, love and discipline
That you needed to get.

As you've grown with me through the years,
We have gotten so close
And you've been there through my laughs and tears.

And when I am near you,
When I smell you, touch you and draw you close to my heart
There's no better feeling in the world that I can't live without!

My love for you chases away
My anger, frustrations and fears
When I love you this much,
I have no need for tears!

I understand why God sent you my way
He knew that without your love,
I couldn't have faced the hard and lonely days.

My silent companion
My dearest little love
You were sent to me for a purpose....
THE GREATEST GIFT OF ALL!!!!
