Through my daughters eyes
The glow she has when she tells a story
Or talks about something she loves
her smile when she looks at a baby
when she’s in the back seat with her eyes closed, the wind just blowing in her face and her hair blowing with no care in the world
through my daughters eyes
I want to teach you all the things I wish I knew then that I know now
Life is hard my sweet girl
But if you take it and conquer it, the world is yours
The sky is not the limit. You are your own limit with your own limitations
Know that you will get your heart broken, but know you’ll break some hearts too
Through my daughters eyes
Mistakes and bad choices are what makes you grow
The first time is a mistake.
The second time is a choice.
And you will keep making those mistakes until you learn from them
I’ll be right here to catch you before you fall
I will always be your biggest fan
Through my daughters eyes
Your present reflects your future
Don’t ever preach what you don’t know
And be your own judge of people
This world is cruel and doesn’t stop for anyone
So be humble and kind
You never know what someone is going through
Through my daughters eyes
I hope you know when your off to college and you’re lost or confused your compass leads you back to me. Home.
I hope when you fall in love you fall in love with their soul
Looks fade, but who they are as a person never will
I hope when you have your career you love every bit of it
I hope when you have your own babies, you take with you everything I’ve taught you along the way
And I hope you tell your children who taught you it
Take lots of pictures
Take in every moment, and know you saved my life
Through my daughters eyes
