Re-watching the Past, Looking to the Future
I see your little face
grinning in a Power Rangers suit
Red, of course that would be your favorite
You are so small
hands so tiny
your smile is the cutest thing
I see a home-video
your sisters playing violin together
very out of tune
you in the background
not more than 4
spinning around to the music
holding your sippy cup
the entire time
I wonder if our children
will have your fluffy hair
your curiosity, independence
If I will see your smile on their face
hear your sass in their voice
I see your old pictures,
I fangirl over them
forever thanking my lucky stars
Your family-history focused aunt
Discovered Facebook
You might think I'm weird
But I just think your adorably sweet
Thankfully, you love me anyway
And together wonder about the future
while looking back fondly at the past
