My Daughter
(Name)
Welcome sweetheart, to womanhood
Many a tear you will cry
Before your life is through
There will be bills, you can't pay
Many a wolf at your door
That won't go away
Some friends, you will find out
Are really a foe
Guest in your home
That will not go
Life is not always good
Sometimes it's very bad
But don't let circumstances
Turn your mind mad
Stand strong against life's mighty wind
Search inside yourself
To find your best friend
Always let a smile shine
Upon your pretty face
And know that you are often
Your mother's saving grace
I will always be there,
Mom

How God Made Little Girls
(Name)
A speck of frills
With a pinch of pink
A touch of lace
And a dainty wink
He mixed these in
With a love for dance
And heaps of laughter
Some beauty perchance
He added oodles more
Of joy and grace
Then he put some dimples
In just the right place
As a final touch
He included a curl
And with that he smiled
For he had created a girl

A Daughter Is Love
A Daughter Is Laughter And Tenderness
Sweet Memories, Too ...
But Most Of All, Happiness
Every Year Through
It Doesn't Seem So Long Ago
But More Like Yesterday
That You Were Just A Little Girl
Still Happily At Play
And Yet Somehow, As Time Has Passed
You've Gone Sweeter, Dear
That Why You’re Thought So Much Of
And Loved More Every Year

Our Precious Daughter
(Name)
A special little girl God gave us one day
You were placed into our arms
For us to lead your way
The love we had for you
Right from the start
Has grown so much and now
It completely fills our hearts
Our lives have had some laughter
We have had our share of tears
But God has given each their place
With the passing of the years
You stand before us now
And it is hard to understand
How God has turned our little girl
Into a lovely woman
We have failed in many ways
To be the parents we should be
But we can say we love you
As these passing moments flee
But this one thing remember
As you open each door
That as much as we do love you,
God still loves you more
We Love You,
Mom and Dad

A Daughter
To My /Our Daughter, (Name)
A daughter is a wonderful blessing
A treasure from above
She is laughter, warmth, and special charm
She is thoughtfulness, and love
A daughter brings a special joy

As she grows into adulthood
She fills our heart with pride
With every year that passes
She is more special than before
Through every stage, through ever age
You love her even more
No words can describe the warm memories
The pride and gratitude too
That comes from having a daughter
To love, and to cherish, “just like you”
You are so special,

Middle Child
(Name)
Not the oldest, not the youngest,
but somewhere in between.
A middle child can sometimes be lost
amid life's daily routine.
You never got to be the first
at any new stage,
nor the last to treasure
a final special age.
"Time for bed, you little ones"
always included you,
but "older children, clean the dishes"
meant middle children too!
I want to say I'm proud of you,
you've made my life a treat.
For without the middle child,
a family would not be complete.
You are the precious balance
between growing up and youth.
You teach us about compromise
and seeking the truth.
At times it is hard to let you go,
to cut the apron strings.
For the future is uncertain,
but whatever tomorrow brings
you will face each new challenge.
But, I want you to know
your place in my heart
is steady and true
and will never cease to grow.
I / We Love You,
Mom / Dad or Both

My Youngest Child
(Name)
I thought I had things figured out
by the time you came along.
But being a parent one more time
proved to me that I was wrong.
I thought I had seen it all
there was nothing more to know.
How could I imagine the joy I'd find
watching another life grow?
Not my first child, I naively thought
there would be nothing new.
But you made each stage exciting again
and all uniquely "you."
"The older kids have more fun!"
You'd cry, so anxious to be grown,
but soon you would be playing again
in a make-believe world of your own.
Each milestone you awaited
with anticipation very great
oh, to drive a car, stay out past ten
and finally graduate!
But the days you thought just dawdled
have been quick to disappear
and regardless of your age,
there is one more thing to make clear.
Though you will always be my baby
who brought me joy, laughter and fun
you're an even greater treasure now,
and I'm proud of all you've become.

My Only Child
(Name)
On the day you were born,
my life was changed completely.
How could one tiny child transform my world
oh, so sweetly?
You brought back my childhood,
brought out the child in me
And gave me fresh perspective
on life's priorities.
The world became brand new again
as I saw it through your eye
and I learned to value each new day
as a gift full of surprise.
I know the life of an only child
is not always filled with ease.
You've had no one to borrow from,
share secrets with, or tease;
And yet, no matter what life brings,
you take it all in stride.
The strength of character you show
fills my heart with pride.
I never knew just how much love
a child would stir in me,
but in his grace the father saw
and recognized my need.
For I was given just a taste
of perfect love, it's true,
when God in all his mercy,
chose to bless my life with you.

The Little Artist
(Name)
It takes a certain wisdom
To help a child to grow
There are times we want
To intervene and let
Adult "know how" show
For a child the world's
A delightful test
At times they struggle
At times make a mess
If we love them, guide them
And let them be
We nurture individuality
Life is like and empty canvas
So vast and so grand
We must supply
Our children the paintbrush
But we should not move their hand
Purchase Poem: 563 - Daughter Now
God walks with you, He'll do his part
to lift up and mend shattered hearts
Water His shoulder with your tears
whisper to Him all doubts and fears
Find comfort these times soon shall pass
Life is but a tempestuous, fragile glass
Yet, with a wave of God's mighty hand
He can scatter troubles upon the sand
Leave the window of life opened wide
Bidding your Shepherd to come inside
During trials and troubles invite God in
Bringing peace and comfort once again
God is our refuge and strength
A very present help in trouble
Psalm 46:1

Christmas Poem
If someone forces you to go one mile
Go with him two miles;
Matthew 5:41
For God so loved the world that He
Gave His only begotten Son, that
Whosoever believes in Him should not
Perish but have everlasting life
John 3:16
Christmas was when God gave us
The ultimate gift
The gift of love and salvation
Our whole lives through
Although we don't have a lot of money
To give expensive gifts to you
We can share our love for Jesus
And our prayers that you find the
Strength and courage
To overcome the trials and troubles
That life may bring to you

Babies Don't Keep
Cleaning and scrubbing
Can wait till tomorrow,
For babies grow up
We've learned to our sorrow.
So quiet down cobwebs,
Dust go to sleep,
I'm rocking my baby.
And babies don't keep.

My Daughter
(Name)
For everything there is a season
And I know the you are grown
But in my heart is a treasure chest
More precious than mere gold
It’s a lifetime of memories
And wonders to behold
A picture book of dreams and secrets
We’ve shared since you were one day old
The magic you created
It is there within your smile
Enchantment, always embrace it
Keep it with you every mile
Look forward to tomorrow
Yet, never forget yesterday
Where I became not just your Mother/Father
But a friend along the way
In my heart you are still that little girl
I bounced upon my knee
My world became a better place
When God gave you to me
I love you,
