Too Fast

She is growing up,
But not too fast.
I plan to make each moment last.

She's resilient and confident,
She's bossy and defiant.
I plan to remember each event.

She's smart and friendly,
Wise beyond her years.
This day is bringing me to tears.

She is growing up,
I thought not fast,
But today I realized,
This moment won't last.

My little bright beauty at six years old,
Has so many things in her life I've been told.
She's a leader and a friend and a comforter.

My little girl with her ocean of eyes,
Will always be my little girl,
No matter her size.

Today she leaves her Kindergarten behind,
Tomorrow marks the journey of a different kind,
She is growing up way too fast.
How do I make this moment last?
