That's Our Daughter

Sometimes things catch you by surprise... today I sat back and looked at our precious gift from God and thought "That's our Daughter." I wonder what wonderful plans He has for her and for all of us. So below are some lyrics... yes I am one of those people, but I just really connected with them. Enjoy. :)
Everything she sees she says she wants.
Everything she wants I see she gets.
That's my daughter in the water everything she owns I bought her
Everything she owns.
That's my daughter in the water, everything she knows I taught her.
Everything she knows.
Everything I say she takes to heart.
Everything she takes she takes apart.
That's my daughter in the water every time she fell I caught her.
Every time she fell.
That's my daughter in the water, I lost every time I fought her.
I lost every time.
Every time she blinks she strikes somebody blind.
Everything she thinks blows her tiny mind.
That's my daughter in the water, who'd have ever thought her?
Who'd have ever thought?
That's my daughter in the water, I lost every time I fought her Yea, I lost every time.


from Loudon Wainwright III 's "Daughter"
