It's hard to believe that my girl's turning one,
That a whole year has passed, a whole year is gone.
I'm not sure how I feel, not sure what to think,
She's no longer a baby, but a toddler on the brink
Of walking and talking and jumping and running,
She's already gorgeous, already stunning.
She knows lots of words and can point to her head,
And gets her baby chompers brushed before bed.
She loves to dance and splash in her tubby,
She cruises and crawls and chases her puppy.
She loves to read books and play hide and seek.
She's still got a belly and her giant baby cheeks.
She's still got a belly and her giant baby cheeks.
She leans in for kisses and reaches for hugs,
And when she's ready for milk on my shirt she still tugs.
It's hard to believe her baby days have passed by,
We no longer have nights when she wakes up to cry.
And although I don't think those long nights will be missed,
I do think I'll miss night time snuggles just a bit.
I hope I never forget this first amazing year,
Her little baby voice and her wispy blond hair
Oh my sweet baby girl, your mom loves you a lot.
I think you're the best, my favorite little tot.
