Surprise Party!

My baby girl is turning 11 yrs old this coming monday!!!!

I cannot believe just how much time has gone by since that day, in which,
she came into this world, as a tiny, pink, reddish, skin colored baby, with no clue of what life would be like for her.

She hates it when I get all teary eyed retelling her how the first thing I saw of her was her cute, roundish, pink butt cheeks and a bruise right above!
She has threatened to do something if I share this with any of her boyfriends! Hah!  Well, the doctor pretty much grabbed her around her midwaist and lifted her up, and all I could see were those, cute, pinkish butt cheeks, and I wanted to bend over and pinch each one!  But also in the back of my mind I remember saying," how in the world did this big baby come out of my body, let alone live in it for 9 whole months!"
Then when she was streched out, I could not believe how long she was, and every little thing was perfect!
  Not that her birth was exciting or anything special for anyone else, except God and myself.
  From the first time I held her to breastfeeding her, that was scary in itself!  Yet, all in all, her birth came at a time in which my life was just plain dull, and lacking any type of hope.
  But one look into her deep, brown eyes, I knew that I could never live without her, less, leave her be, and this love was birthed in my heart, that overcame me, I never knew anyone could have so much love to give to such a little babe.
  And to say," She is mine..."   is just an honor I do not deserve.
Yes, I had her in me for 9 months, but God placed her there, and saw her as she grew and matured before coming out.
  She saved my life.  and now she is talking about boys, and sex and marriage!
I love her so much, yet I know that I cannot fully keep her from the evil abounding in this world.  But I can prepare her for the horrors she will hear about or see in her own life time.
   I want her to be an independent young woman, who is bold and courageous to stand up to her adversaries when they come, to not let any storm hold her back, nor let any man rob her of her innocence less break her hurt and self esteem.
  That she may be able to comfort, and help those in need, and that she may show compassion and love without expecting anything in return.
   I hope to accomplish this before my time comes.  That she may grow and become a part of society, in which she is neither full of herself less, denies herself. but that she can contribute her qualities, and skills in helping those that are lost within this world.
        Happy birthday baby girl!
