All These Things

The other day I was driving in the car listening to a mix CD that I've listened to hundreds of times when suddenly I realized I was listening to the perfect song that describs how I feel about my little girl.  

Maybe it's her laugh when she throws back and sighs

Or her eyebrows when I do something stupid

Maybe it's her smell, the lotion she wears

Or how my hands smell like {baby lotion} for days

You know it could be all these things

But I think mostly it is her smile

Cause I love to see her smile back at me

And I know she is happy

Maybe it's her touch, the feel of her hands

When she puts her tiny fingers in mine

Maybe it's her eyes gently searching my soul

Still nothing stirs me like when I see those lips roll

and I see her smile

Cause I love to see her smile back at me

And I know she is happy

-Stephen Speaks

(Those who know the song will recognize that I left out the first verse...not quite as applicable!  And the subsitution of 'baby lotion' for 'country pear'-ha!)
