Lauren

October fifth, nineteen eighty-six

The day I gave birth to you, my heart was transfixed

I think back to the days when you were so small

Laying in the bed, no worries at all

Watching our favorite movies, wrapped up in the glow

Just you and me, baby, I loved watching you grow

You’ve always been tender, you’ve always been sweet

Making my whole life feel so complete

Lauren, you’ll always be my one and only baby girl

Powerful and capable, stepping out into the world

My love for you has no limits, it goes on and on

I'm always in your corner, right where I belong

Resilient and beautiful, I want the best for you

Believe in yourself, there's nothing you can't do

You wear your heart on your sleeve, you're always giving so much

Guiding the people around you with a gentle touch

You're such a good mother to Brooklyn, it's plain to see

And now a baby boy is joining the family

From walking the Sister Strut, matching our stride

To every new chapter, I'm filled up with pride

You pour your soul into all that you do

I am so blessed to have a daughter like you

Lauren, you’ll always be my one and only baby girl

Powerful and capable, stepping out into the world

My love for you has no limits, it goes on and on

I'm always in your corner, right where I belong

Resilient and beautiful, I want the best for you

Believe in yourself, there's nothing you can't do

So never give up when the pressure is on

You have the grace to weather any storm

Keep your head lifted, keep standing tall

I'll be right here to catch you if you fall

No matter the distance, no matter the test

I'll always be here, wishing you the best

'Cause Lauren, you’ll always be my one and only baby girl

Powerful and capable, stepping out into the world

My love for you has no limits, it goes on and on

I'm always in your corner, right where I belong

Resilient and beautiful, I want the best for you

My sweet baby girl, I will always love you
