My youngest daughter made the Varsity Volleyball team at her high school for the 3rd consecutive year on Friday (she will be a Junior this year). While we celebrate her achievements, she knows they come with expectations. Below is something we have taught our girls to live by...
Little Eyes Upon You
There are little eyes upon you
and they're watching night and day.
There are little ears that quickly
take in every word you say.
There are little hands all eager
to do anything you do;
And a little girl who's dreaming
of the day she'll be like you.
You're the little angel's idol,
you're the wisest of the wise.
In her little mind about you
no suspicions ever rise.
She believes in you devoutly,
holds all you say and do;
She will say and do, in your way
when she's grown up just like you.
There's a wide-eyed little girl
who believes you're always right;
and her eyes are always opened,
and she watches day and night.
You are setting an example
every day in all you do;
For the little girl who's waiting
to grow up to be like you.
Congratulations we are extremely proud of your accomplishments. But even more so, we are extremely proud of the young lady you have become!
Love, Mom, Dad, Sissy and the Dog Crew
Hi Lauren,
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by and commenting on my hurricanes! If you can't find any at the dollar store, check a goodwill or thriftstore; you can use just about any type of tall glass container and candle stick!
