"Butterfly Kisses"

Fluttering wings, so light and free
A colorful vision, for all to see
A butterfly lands, so gentle and sweet
A kiss on the cheek, a memory to keep

Always here, to see you through
A shoulder to cry on, a hand to hold
A love that's never-ending, never grows old

"Growing Up"

Growing up so fast, it seems
From baby smiles, to childhood dreams
Soon you'll be a young woman, ready to take flight
Auntie will always be here, cheering you on, day and night.

A Love Letter to My Neice

Dear sweet niece,
As you grow and bloom
I want you to know
You are never alone

In this big, scary world
I'll be here by your side
Guiding you through life's journey
With love and pride

Your smile lights up a room
And your laughter is music to my ears
You have a light within you
That shines brighter than any star

I pray you never lose that light
The world needs it more than ever
Your kindness and compassion
Can change the world, wherever

You are smart, resilient, and brave
And have a heart that's pure gold
You inspire me to be a better person
And help me to never feel old

I will always be your rock
In good times and bad
I'll celebrate your victories
And be there when you're sad

My love for you is unconditional
And will never, ever fade
You are a precious gem
A masterpiece that's been made

So always remember
That you are cherished and adored
And if you need me, my darling
I'll be knocking at your door

I can't wait to see
All the wonderful things you'll do
And I'll be cheering from the sidelines
Because my love for you is true

So go out and conquer the world
With your spirit shining bright
I'll always be here cheering you on
My dear niece, you are my heart's delight.
