Two

 For Catie, on her 2nd birthday...


When you're two, the world is a very big place.
And when you're two, everyone holds your hand.
Your mood can change with every breath you take,
so take a deep one.  Hold it in for awhile...
Look around and just smile.

When you're two, there's such possibility.
And when you're two, every chance is yours.
You're just discovering who you will grow up to be,
so dream big dreams.  Hold them close to your heart...
Cherish every part.

When you're two, there's so much ahead of you.
And when you're two, you struggle to be free.
I'm not ready for you to grow up this soon,
so take my hand.  Hold tightly before you float away...
Slow down little girl, just stay.
