Happy Birthday My Daughter, My Friend

You came to me with naught save love
You came, uniquely you
What a perfect gift God gave away
On this very special day

I've watched and prayed as you have grown
In beauty and in grace
You bring me joy and pure delight
Just to gaze upon your lovely face

My heart is with you every moment
Wherever you may go
You'll always be my precious girl
And I'll always love you so

Have a wonderful birthday sweetheart
You are so nice to know

A daughter is a gift of love; given from God above.
A daughter is a joy forever.
A daughter may outgrow your lap,
 but she will never outgrow your heart.
All the dreams I prayed you'd be,
are all the things you are.
You are loved for the little girl you were;
and the precious Daughter you will always be.
It's truly a gift to have a daughter like you, who grows more precious with the years!
A daughter is:  the happy memories of the past,
the joyful moments of the present,
the hope and promise of the future.
A daughter is a day brightener and a heart warmer!
Daughter, you're the kind of person I would choose to be my friend.
