happy birthday, my katie bird

time moves much too fast for me
who would have it
sit still...just for a moment...
to soak it all in.
memories of my tiny girl,
my bright little baby bird
always laughing always smiling.
She has her own nest now
and her own little birds to
guide and teach how to fly
Bless you as you go my little katie bird...
and sit quiet and soak it all in.
for time moves much too fast for the heart that would have it
just sit still.

What a wonderful birthday wish...I am all misty eyed. Our little birds do fly and grow so quickly, don't they?

Hi Christine:
Isn't that what it is all about? Our babies flying and building their nests to Mother their babies : )
