When She Was Little...

When she was little she was a dollop of goodness. She was little but a bundle of good tidings. She was little but fierce. She had eyes that spoke louder than her apparent innocence. She was little but she was large. She was little but she was 'all that'. She was little but she was her mother's pride and joy. She was little, but she had her own mind, and she was serious about it. She was tiny but she was smart. She was little but she was the next best thing. She was truly a gift from God.
