On a cold dark February evening
An Angel left Heavens Holy sanctuary
To became a special gift for our family
An earthly bundle of flesh to cherish

I was awestruck the moment I saw her face
I was submerged in an overpowering love
When she opened her tiny eyes to see me
I beheld an eternal Angel’s heart and soul

My little girl began to grow so fast
Her laughter filled our mortal world
She crawled and soon began to walk
I heard “Dada” before she could talk

As she raced to jump in my arms
Her hugs and kisses owned me
Her eyes sparkled as she cutely grins
Glowing as a candle on the darkest night

Her birthdays sped so quickly by
My treasure, a present so neatly wrapped
Memories of time we shared together
Whispering, “I love you Daddy” as she drifts off to sleep

My Angel has blossomed with radiance
As she transforms into an enchanting teenager
Gently wielding all her childhood charms
As she gracefully becomes a young lady

God so blessed us those precious years ago
With a special daughter, his finest gift
As tears of joy and pride stain my eyes
I see a little part of me in everything she does

Then I look again and see a heavenly being
A special present from the throne of God
To Daddy; An Angel
From Heaven; With Love

Happy 13th Birthday Brittany “I Love You”
