Little girls are made of creams
And powder, paint and dreams;
Then there are telephone calls,
Seems sugar and spice is not all.
Give me strength to make it through
While I learn what I'm supposed to do.

Ah yes, daughters- or so this speaks to me.  I like it, it has a mother's truth to it-

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

Oh, that age of daughters and sons and teenhood...

Here's a and yes, you'll see it through - but not without some graying to the hair.  They bring it on, I tell ya!
