Inspired by Rebekah Beatrice Vincent,
mother to two of the most beautiful little girls
Today our daughter laughed the most beautiful laugh,
It was so delightful it made my heart flutter.
She has grown so from a babe into this little girl,
Right before my eyes she changes.
How I wish I could tell you about her.
How I wish I could.
I made a vow that she would never forget you.
I promised to keep her heritage.
I speak to her in English and she answers me in Chinese,
I speak to her in Chinese and she answers me in English.
The two parts of her little life so entwined.
She is double blessed to have us both.
She is not mine - she is not yours,
But she is ours.
As I tuck her into her bed at night,
I tell her of your unselfish love,
Of your sacrifice.
As I gently awake her in the morning,
My hearts fills with gratitude.
How can I ever say, "Thank you."
