Happy 8th Birthday Elizabeth!

Rather than a birthday poem, I'm posting some of the lyrics to a song that so very much describes you. It's meant to be a love song but if you read the words- really read the words- anyone would swear they were talking about you! Happy 8th Birthday, Elizaberry Pie!
Can this be true?
Tell me, can this be real?
How can I put into words what I feel?
My life was complete. I thought I was whole.
Why do I feel like I'm losing control?
I never thought that love could feel like this
and you've changed my world with just one kiss.
How can it be that right here with me
there's an angel?
It's a miracle...
In all of creation
All things great and small
You are the one that surpasses them all
More precious than any diamond or pearl
They broke the mold when you came in this world
And I'm trying hard to figure out
Just how I ever did without
The warmth of your smile
The heart of a child
That's deep inside
Leaves me purified
Your love is like a river
Peaceful and deep
Your soul is like a secret
That I never could keep
When I look into your eyes
I know that it's true
God must have spent
A little more time
On you!

  3. Happy birthday Elizabeth. Our friend Lynn stole the words that I wanted to use about your smile and your eyes in those pictures.

    I know something else about your eyes. You like to use them to stare at me and make me feel very uncomfortable. You enjoy doing that so much, don't you? Quit staring at me, okay????

    Just kidding, you know I really like it when you try to make me uncomfortable with your stare. You always end up laughing.

    Have a great birthday. I love you.

    Papa
