Gone are the days
of bedtime stories and
being tucked in.
No longer the little girl with
the curls in your hair
and a doll in tow.
The chubby cheeks and
mommy cuddles
are no more.
No more tea parties and
princess dress up.
Kindergarten
moved into elementary school
which jumped into
middle school and suddenly
the days of boys
and college loomed ahead.
The sweet innocence of
yesterday passed
and the
girl I see is no longer
a child
reaching out to hold
my hand,
but a young lady
who has captured my heart
many times over.
Whose smile
brightens my day and
whose grumpy
butt moments make
me smile inside.
The little girl with the
princess curls
and barbie doll
glasses
has grown into
a beautiful young lady
with purple in her hair,
quirky thoughts
intelligence
and a love for
all things
Dr. Who.
The little girl may be
gone,
yet her hold on
my heart
Will forever stay.
