Then and now

Then you were in my life,oh so small and fragile.
Then you were in my life,making me want to smile and smile.
Then you were in my life,looking at me with those wide eyes.
Then you were in my life, gurgling ,gushing and giving out the loudest sighs.
Then you were in my life,dressed all in pinks and frill.
Then you were in my life, where each day was a drill yet with a thrill.
Time passed...
Now you are in my life,standing on the threshold of your life.
Now you are in my life,growing up so fast.
Now you are in my life,the baby days all so well in the past.
Now you are in my life,laughing and loving
Now you are in my life,looking ahead expectantly.
Now you are in my life,waiting to grow into your own life........
