Butterfly Kisses

There's two things I know for sure.
She was sent here from heaven, and she’s daddy’s little girl.
As I drop to my knees by her bed at night,
She talks to Jesus, and I close my eyes.
And I thank God for all the joy in my life, But most of all...
Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer.
Stickin’ little white flowers all up in her hair.
"Walk beside the pony daddy, it’s my first ride."
"I know the cake looks funny, daddy, but I sure tried."
Oh, with all that I’ve done wrong, I must have done something right.
To deserve a hug every morning, and butterfly kisses at night.

Sweet sixteen today.
She’s looking like her momma a little more every day.
One part woman, the other part girl.
To perfume and makeup, from ribbons and curls.
Trying her wings in a great big world. But I remember...

Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer.
Stickin’ little white flowers all up in her hair.
"You know how much I love you daddy, but if you don’t mind,
I’m only going to kiss you on cheek this time."
With all that I’ve done wrong, I must have done something right.
To deserve a hug every morning, and butterfly kisses at night.

All the precise time.
Like the wind, the years go by.
Precious butterfly, spread your wings and fly.

She’ll change her name today.
She’ll make a promise, and I’ll give her away.
Standing in the bride room just staring at her.
She asked me what I’m thinking, and I said, "I’m not sure,
I just feel like I’m losing my baby girl."
Then she leaned over... and gave me...

Butterfly kisses, with her mama there.
Stickin’ little white flowers all up in her hair.
"Walk me down the aisle daddy, it’s just about time."
"Does my wedding gown look pretty daddy?" "Daddy don’t cry."
With all that I’ve done wrong, I must have done something right.
To deserve a hug every morning, and butterfly kisses.
I couldn’t ask God for more, man, this is what love is.
I know I’ve gotta let her go, but I’ll always remember.
Every hug in the morning, and butterfly kisses...

Hey Dad,
Happy birthday, Feliz compleanos, hope you have a good day, hope there are many more birthdays to come and all that.

More than those greetings, I hope you find the time to rest awhile and reap the love your hard work has grown. Of course, everyday seems filled with pressing matters and little catastrophes, work, chores, house jobs, complainers, bills, crying babies, fighting kids, dinner, and more. But, if you stop and look at the problems that happen a thousand, no, a million times a year, none of them ruined life. Not one of them made a substantial change in your life, not one of them benefited you, or your family, or your customers. They were just what we call them: distractions. We have to deal with them, and not give up, but losing sight of what truly matters is where so many go wrong.
So, I hope you have an enjoyable day, yes, but I really hope that you never lose sight of the things and people that matter. The people who love you.

Love and God Bless,
jessica
