Our first-born, fourteen years old today, where does the time go?

She’s thoughtful and pretty smart, her humor makes me smile,

She’s quietly finding her way in the world, maybe a little more mature than her years,

Simply elegant and patient and inspiring, her creativity fills me with awe, and insistent on what she knows? Indeed, increasing by the day, week, month, year,

When she asks for a hug, I simply melt inside, I love her so,

May God continue to bless her and keep her safe, all the days of her life,

Happy Birthday, Ana!
