This was a dedication for my baby sister. Because of my mothers lifestyle I was the one to take care of my sister. I to this day feel like I have to be her protector though she's miles away. I was 9yrs. old when she was born.
I remember when I saw your face.
A beautiful baby in pink & lace.
Not wanting you to experience heartache & neglect
I always knew in my heart it was you I must protect.
I remember when you were just 5yrs old,
Up in your room, kissing a boy, as the story’s told.
With all innocents & those Angelic eyes,
Everyone thought you were sweeter, than even apple pies.
Iremember when you would get scared at night.
You would come crawl in my bed, so I could squeeze you tight.
Wanting to comfort you anyway that I could,
I would just love you, like a big sister should.
Iremember when time began to pass.
From child to adult, it’s happened way too fast.
So what’s happened to that little girl so innocent & true ?
For I would love to hold her now & say that”I love you”
No matter how far away this little girl may go,
My heart is always right by hers & this I truly know.
My little sis is special in many different ways.
I can not wait to see her; I’m counting down the days.
So to my little sister, I share with you from my heart,
I looked into your big brown eyes, & loved you from the start.
The familiar lament of dual-career parents raising children is, "I just can't do it all." The Libra Solution provides an alternative - a more satisfying and sustainable work and life approach - to the overwrought modern day norm.
Be always safe,
