Cbaughter,
today and always}
please know that I see you.
I see the path you 've made
that's all your own.
I see the many unique
talents and gifts you have to share.
I see your brilliance, your enthusiasm,
and how deeply you care
and hurt sometimes.
I see your hard-earned wisdom,
your soft pure innocence,
your courage and compassion,
your unconditional goodness.
I see what a difference
you make in this world,
and I hopeyou know
how very much I love you,
and how proud I'll always be
to have a daughter
as wonderful as you.
