The best Fathers Day Gift Yet!!!

Jun 15, 2006 13:27

Today when I went to pick up my daughter from school....she had a surprise for me. It was all wrapped up nicely and the wrapping was hand made....you could tell...but it was all hand decorated by her....lol...that was the first sweet part.
Then when we got home she wanted me to open it right away....I said I should wait until Fathers Day, but since I won't be seeing her...as she reminded me...lol....I was talked into it. Inside there was a card with a poem in it. Now I know she dident write the poem herself, but I know she rewrote it in the card....after about 20 min of trying to translate a 6 year olds hand writing I made out the poem. SO I desided to share the poem with everyone.

Happy Father's Day

"Walk a little slower, Daddy"
said a little child so small.
"I'm following in your footsteps,
And I don't want to fall."

"Sometimes your steps are very fast,
Sometimes they're hard to see;
So walk a little slower, Daddy
For you are leading me."

"Someday when I'm all grown up,
You're what I want to be,
then I will have a little child
Who'll want to follow me."

"And I would want to lead just right,
And know that I was true;
So walk a little slower, Daddy
For I must follow you."

To Daddy
Love Elizabeth

that was the card.....it was the sweetest thing I have gotten from her yet...so I just wanted to share it.
