Turning 3!

How you have grown
Has it already been three years?
It only seems like yesterday when I nuzzled my nose
Against your tiny feet

How snugly you used to fit in my arms
With your tiny fingers wrapped around me
I miss your baby smell and the gurgling sounds
And still remember that first smile!

And now you seem ready to take on the world
Rushing ahead of me everywhere with your tiny feet
So eager to explore, touch and feel
Questioning the ways of the world

Yes your questions..
Sometimes amuse me and bring a smile to my lips
And other times leave me in wonder
Makes me realise "Right answer may not be right always"!

Like when yesterday you asked "Mamma, what's on the moon?"
I was stumped for a second, Should I tell the truth?
And see the disappointment in your face
Or should I try to be imaginative as you are!?

I can see that independent streak in you
You remind me of myself in so many ways
I hope I can keep that fire burning in you
Make sure there is always wind below your wings

But for now darling
How much ever you say "I become big" 
You will always be my litte one.
Happy Birthday my sweetie pie!!
