On Emma's Birthday Eve

 

When I have said my evening prayer, 
And my clothes are folded on the chair, 

And mama has turned out the light, 
I'll still be fourteen years old tonight. 

But from the very break of day, 
Before the children rise and play, 
Before the sunlight has turned to gold, 

Tomorrow I'll be fifteen years old. 
Fifteen candles kissess when I wake! 
Fifteen candles on my cake! 

Can't wait to celebrate anotehr trip around the sun with our sweet Emma Faith! xo
