Mallori

I still remember that delivery room

The moment they placed you right into my arms

Malli, you took my whole heart then and there

With your quiet grace and your easy charm

You’ve always had a spirit from another time

Beautiful inside and out, a light that always shines

You’re my old soul, funny, kind, and true

I just can't imagine a life without you

From a little girl to the woman I see

Malli, you mean the whole world to me

I love you dearly, in all that you do

My sweet old soul, I'm so proud of you

I look back on those Fridays at the store

Hunting for My Little Pony down the aisle

Then the weekend rolled around and we'd be in the kitchen

Baking up cookies just to see you smile

Flour on our hands, making dumplings from scratch

Those are the memories that nothing can match

Then came the morning that the tears fell from my eyes

When you gave me little Raiden, what a sweet surprise

Watching you hold him took me right back to the start

A beautiful mother with a loving, tender heart

You’re my old soul, funny, kind, and true

I just can't imagine a life without you

From a little girl to the woman I see

Malli, you mean the whole world to me

I love you dearly, in all that you do

My sweet old soul, I'm so proud of you
