Dana Ann Carter
My sweet child, I'm in awe of you
You bring me so much joy in all that you do
As I watch you grow, you're a wonder to me
But I can't help but think of what will be
Your smile, your laughter, the feel of your touch
My beautiful daughter, I love you so much
The smell of your hair, and eyes so blue
You are my precious child, and I'm so proud of you
As you become a little lady and start to walk out of
the door, I can't help but wanting you to be a
child once more
My daughter, my child, you are my life
But someday you will become someone's wife
You will have children of your own to treasure
But I'll have you as my child, always and forever
The Lord has given you to me, and I'll treasure
these days for all eternity
A mother's love,
