Sweet poem...i see we were thinking along the same lines ...but i was thinking of a different kind of baby haa.. Baby Blue Eyes.. ~Victoria~ A poem is never finished, only abandoned. - Paul Valery (1871-1945) |

Marcy, So nice of you to miss me over there... "This world is not my home, I'm just a passin' through. My treasures are laid up Somewhere beyond the blue..." ...I'll be back. Spit Fire, Hey, what a nice reply. Gave me googly eyes and all. and *Peace. Bonnie, I hope you are right... she is 20 now and I am not so sure how she will take this. I'm sure the young men are dazed by her baby blues now a days. Victoria, I'll tell ya a secret... Like in Victoria's... never mind. Yep, the title is a bit deceptive and I agree if I had eyes like Paul, I'd truly be a New Man. Thanks for the reply. |

Nathan, Thanks, The awesomeness of holding your newborn child for the first time stays with you forever and the moment of me staring at her eyes seems as if it just happened. |

Nothing like a daughter...even when grown..they always manage to capture their dad's affection. Loved this tender look at the past. |

Martie, Yep, my now grown daughter's baby blues still have a way of getting this dad's attention... and I'm glad that you liked it. Jwesley, Hey, your response made me feel like I had a big "D" painted on my chest. You know... for "Super Dad." Yep, Dad's are still alive! Kethry, Blush! Well, I guess you are right... We are all hunks in the eyes of our daughters. That's what you meant right? |
