Is there anything sweeter than a girl turning 7?
Who wakes up at dawn, beyond pure excitement
She runs down the stairs her smile so eager
“It’s My Birthday today!” she says in a squeal
“I know!” I exclaim, smiling back to my girl
And celebrate we will, from dawn until dusk
With strawberry icing sprinkled with blue fairy dust
Games will be played and balloons will fill the air
Even if it’s just us, crowning your brown curly hair
We won’t let anything damper your special day
Mama has pink tissued gifts, popcorn and clay
Purple striped straws, bubbles, and signs on display
Whatever says happy we will bring it our way
I love you I love you my sweet birthday girl
Give me your hand for a few princess twirls
And when fireflies fill up the dark twilight sky
We’ll catch them and kiss them back into the night
May your dreams be sparkled sweet with pajamas and glitter
And your days dashed with bear hugs and puppies that snuggle
Cheek kisses, story books and Disney princess movies
Butterflies, playgrounds and cupcakes for dinner
Remember honey girl, whatever you do
My heart explodes with LOVE, so special for you!
