On Hadley's First Birthday

Such a happy little girl,
Adorable as well;
Impossible to not succumb
To your enchanting spell.

You mimic every gesture,
Stare intently at my eyes
And when we’re playing peekaboo,
You giggle in surprise.

I love the way you wave bye-bye
And shake your finger, “No!”
Despite the fact you wish each crumb
Into your mouth could go.

You’re super speedy as you crawl
And soon enough, you’ll walk
And all those da-da na-na sounds
Will be replaced by talk.

Today, though, is your birthday.
We’ll all come to celebrate
And rejoice in all your progress
Every August on this date.
