One day her / For today I will

One day her legs will be as tall as she is now

For today I’ll hold her on my hip and enjoy the hugs

One day her smiles will catch the eyes of others

For today I’ll laugh along with her and turn the giggles into fits

One day her mind will outsmart the wisest of thinkers

For today I’ll answer all her questions about life

One day her heart will be entrusted to another special person

For today I’ll revel in the love and kisses she shares with me

One day her soul will soar and live free

For today I’ll do my best to help build her wings.
