I remember the first time you held her your eyes so soft face astonished and tender my god---so gentle. She barely filled your arm, and she wriggled, yawned and slept there as if the infant knew that your heart had just leapt into her tiny hand. Ten years have past, and I see that look steal into your eyes when she flies in your arms covers you with kisses and call you that magic name you have grown to own. It does not matter that you had to make room in that man's heart--- or that at times I know she is the shining star of your soul. It only matters that on that day when you feasted your eyes, unable to believe she was ours, that I watched pure love be born as you held your girl for the very first time, and that you had no words to catch the way she caught your heart the first time I saw the daddy in you.
