Where did you get such a dirty face,
My darling dirty-faced child?
I got it from crawling along in the dirt
And biting two buttons off Jeremy's shirt.
I got it from chewing the roots of a rose
And digging for clams in the yard with my nose.
I got it from peeking into a dark cave
And painting myself like a Navajo brave.
I got it from playing with coal in the bin
And signing my name in cement with my chin.
I got if from rolling around on the rug
And giving the horrible dog a big hug.
I got it from finding a lost silver mine
And eating sweet blackberries right off the vine.
I got it from ice cream and wrestling and tears
And from having more fun than you've had in years.
A walk to remember
I wish to have with you.
By the seashore,
In the breez
You've been with me through rough and tough
Thick and thin, until the very end

Be The Best Of Whatever You Are
If you can't be a pine on the top of the hill,
Be a scrub in the valley
When times are hard, you might stop for a bit,
But it's not over until the moment you qui
In the darkness, in the silence,
Only faint memories of joy are heard.
Overrun by
We had our good days and we had our bad,
I thought I would never forget the times we had.
The first time we ever met
Your name was all I knew
But as we got to know each ot
From the moment our eyes met,
My soul could never forget.
You handed me your numb
Fueling your faith
In what you've got within...
In your God-given gift,
I
A wish for lots of birthday fun
To last until the day is done.
Hoping that all yo
