My Daughter and Me
Walking on the beach leaving our footprints in the sand,
Laughing and giggling as we hold hands.
Finding pretty beach rocks and precious seashells,
Collecting them all in our pretty pink pails
Down from the apparatus and up on the swings
Running in the grass flapping our imaginary wings
Enjoying our picnic under the big shady tree,
How I just love when it’s my daughter and me
At home playing dress up, wearing my dress and my shoes
Dancing in the mirror while we sing the blues
Building a indoor tent, making shadow puppet in the light
Read long bedtime story to sleep through the night
Off to the kitchen baking sugar cookies and cupcakes
Blending fruit smoothies and strawberry milkshakes
Making sure we carefully follow Granny’s recipe
How I just love when it’s my daughter and me
Relaxing at the aquarium watching the fish swim and play
Blowing kisses to the fish and mimic the way they sway
Touching the dolphins and feeding them too
I love watching you smile and seeing that light shine within you
Painting girly colors, and shiny glitter on our toes
Styling our hair, and wearing matching clothes
On our way to the mall for our shopping spree
How I just love when it’s my daughter and me
