Every morning we wake up
And get started with our day
I stumble to the shower
As I quietly pray
For the strength to make it through the morning
And to survive the afternoon
To fight the evening traffic
So I can come home to you
It's just me and you
And I try to be your everything
It's so hard to be strong
When there's no time to be weak
But when I look into those baby blues
I see the child I wish I still could be
Please remember, little Angel
You're everything to me
I don't have the time
To spend with you like I should
Sometimes the ends don't meet
Quite like I hope they would
I wish things worked out different
And we weren't here on our own
But always know I'll never leave you
And you'll never be alone
'Cause It's just me and you
And I try to be your everything
It's so hard to be strong
When there's no time to be weak
But when I look into those baby blues
I see the child I wish I still could be
Please remember, little Angel
You're everything to me
I lay you down each night
And I read your favorite book
All the struggles I go through are worth it
When you give me that little look
That says you'll always trust me
To be your hero and your friend
And you'll always be MY hero
Until the very end
It's just me and you
And I try to be your everything
It's so hard to be strong
When there's no time to be weak
But when I look into those baby blues
I see the child I wish I still could be
Please remember, little Angel
You're everything to me

TO A GREAT FATHER….the poem is beautiful and I am so proud of you, as I know it is very hard to have the responsibility of a job, household and all the things that it takes to care for a baby …but sounds like you are doing a great job. I pray for you all daily. As you know, when God entrusts us with one of His Angels, our own life changes into not what we want for ourselves but for what we want for that child. Love to both you and Kaylee.(thanks for the photos…I have really missed getting them ..she is cuter than ever and can’t wait to see her.)

This made me tear up. You are such an amazing person and wonderful father, finding the strength in harder times to be there for your daughter. The things that happen to you don’t define you, and you will through your great mind, love, and faith, have things so much better after the hardest trials are over.
