Frozen Moments (poem)

Laughing, smiling and silliness
Can I freeze these moments in time?

You're growing up too fast my girl
Will you remember our tickle play?

New sounds pour from your mouth each day
What words will you say next?

I watch your eyes ignite with sparks
How do you view the world?

Your qualities and manners amaze me
What kind of woman will you be?

I hope to remember this instant forever
Can my heart handle this love for you?

I always tell my 8-year old that I will miss her when she grows up. What a great poem -- there are definitely moments that I would freeze and keep to the end of time (though the older she gets, there are more moments that I'd like to throw out the window -- ha!).
