Why God Made Little Girls

God made the world with its towering trees
Majestic mountains and restless seas
Then paused and said, "It needs one more thing
Someone to laugh and dance and sing
To walk in the woods and gather flowers
To commune with nature in quiet hours"
So God made little girls
With laughing eyes and bouncing curls
With joyful hearts and infectious smiles
Enchanting ways and feminine wiles,
And when He'd completed the task He'd begun
He was pleased and proud of the job He'd done
For the world, when seen through a little girl's eyes
Greatly resembles Paradise.

Today my little girl's dreams came true. A baby girl will complete her family of five. Big brothers Ayden and Jameson will be their baby sister's protector and defender. Sweet baby girl, you are already loved more than you know. I can't wait to hold you! Click on Jamie's blog "Our Crazy Life" for the latest news on Baby Bean's progress.

Oh, Debra...what awesome news! This is truly a blessing and a perfect way to complete a family. Ayden and Jameson will be so protective of their baby sister.

I'm truly delighted for you. There is a special bond between a girl and her grandmother. When mommy doesn't understand, Mimi always will!!! You'll see what I mean - it's a great place to be in the middle!

Mimi's are also wonderful shoppers. My Grandmother loved to take me shopping. I learned that the faster I could try it own the more I could get. For some reason I am emotional about this baby. With Jameson, I saw Jamie alot, but this one is different. Maybe it is the last little darling? Right?

I love that poem, how sweet and wonderful. My grandmother always told me little girls are made of sugar and spice and everything nice. She used to sing that and the A-B-C song where the each letter stood for a word, ("B your so beautiful,") and so on. I can't remember the whole song. Anyways, CONGRATS on a granddaughter!!!! :)

What an awesome poem mom! I love it. I still think I'm in denial about having a little girl. After two boys, I truly expected to have another boy! I'm just so excited to hopefully have the type of relationship with my daughter that you and I have. I love you!
