Quiet Moments...

To my Lilee,
Quiet moments...
Moments when I look at you and realize that lately you've been looking more and more grown up.
I find myself wanting to keep you a little girl forever.
But, during moments like this,
I see glimpses of what's to come.
Reflections of who you'll be.
Then I realize, your growing into a beautiful person.
Your laughter, your joy, your spunk...
each of these I will always cherish.
Yet, the most beautiful part of you, isn't something that can be seen from the outside...
it lies within.
Your gentleness...your spirit...your heart,
that's what makes you my Angel Face,
my little girl,
my Lilee.
Quiet moments like this...
a chance to catch my breath...
and thank God for who you are now,
and who you will one day become.
I love you like crazy.
Mommy

Again, you have made your Mom cry!
Why? Because the one I have those very feelings for even after 30 years are feelings you will only feel when you look into your own Angel face's eyes. Now you are just starting to feel and understand what I have felt for almost 30 years. You are my Angel Face and I love You like crazy!
Remember you will always be... MY little Katie Ann
Love you Mom
