Before you even knew her, that little life became your world
From that point on, everything you did was for your little girl.
In that moment of clarity- The first time you looked into her eyes,
you promised to give that baby everything you had, with endless love and sacrifice.

Time then moved so quickly, the years passed her by too soon.
You raised her to show kindness, in everything that she would ever do.
You raised her to be honest; you taught her the importance of the truth.
The more she grew the more she knew, she wanted to be just like you.

All of her innocence then faded away. It happened right before your very eyes. ?In her fight for independence, it was you she chose to deny.
But you could not let go of her, no matter how hard she tried.
No obstacle that she threw at you could ever make you change your mind.

Now here today she stands, nearly eighteen years old.
You have given her everything you had, her life was your whole entire world.
No matter what she does or wherever she plans to go-
She wants you to know that no matter what, she will always be your little girl.
