Smile

Emma, you sure do know how to melt my heart.  Peepaw caught this picture of us, and I plan to print it and put it in the frame he got me for Christmas that has a poem.  The poem made me cry and continues to do so because it's how I feel and what I hope for us.  You make me smile all the time, and emotional. :)

 

 

My Gigi's Smile!

Cradled in your arms,

Your smile shone down on me.

Wrapped in your love,

I knew who you must be.

Your smile bragged to all,

How you loved me so.

Each time you spoke my name,

Your face wore a Gigi's glow.

Your smile is my welcome mat,

We greet in shared delight.

We play like pals for hours,

Parting hugs are teary-eyed and tight.

Your smile is the icing,

That makes my young life sweet.

Snacking cake before dinner,

Secret bedtimes are our treat.

Your smile is my sunshine,

Even on a rainy day.

You find each ray of happiness,

Fading frowns away.

You've given me a treasure,

A way to hold you close.
Your smile and all it brings,
Will be what I remember most.

So very true!  I can't wait until you get a little older so we can snack cake before dinner, and the secret bedtimes will be the joy of my heart. 

I love you sweet Emma!

Love, Gigi
