Worth It

The sleepless nights, the whining
The pain and all the tears
You, my daughter, are worth it
I am blessed beyond my years.

I want you to stay this way
Innocent and sweet to the core
A time when boo boos are healed
By my kiss and nothing more.
Although I know that you must
Grow up and experience the world
I want you to know that to me
You're forever my baby girl
And no matter what life may bring us
No matter the trials we must face
You are worth it all, my dear
No one else could take your place.
