Birthday Eve

Every year I think it will be the last year that Finn will fall asleep on me the night before her birthday.  I'm counting my blessings that she was so tired from her mermaid party today that she fell asleep on me.  I know these days are fleeting.  I could stare at this precious face all day long. Time needs to slow way down.  

When I have said my evening prayers,
And all my clothes are on the chair,
And Mama switches off the light,
I'll still be 3 years old tonight,
But from the very break of day,
Before the children rise and play,
Before the darkness turns to gold,
Tomorrow I'll be FOUR years old!
Four kisses when I wake.
Four candles on my cake.
