For my sister on her Sweet 16.

Years are flying by now, we're no longer 5
When we were just a couple of feet above the floor
And now you can touch the sky
You've walked up to an open door now
I hope you walk in and succeed
Don't let it pass you by
You've grown into a swan
You are careless and free,
But now it's time to fly

Open your big brown eyes,
Open up your heart
Beautiful, you are, but that will only get you so far
Hold onto your dreams and they will no longer only exist in the dark

You are young it's true, but look how far you've come
A sweet young girl has grown into a beautiful young woman
Don't let life pass you,
Live fully until each day is done
Baby sis, Don't take life for granted
You only have one

So on this special day, I want to say I believe in you
In all that is yet to come
And in all that you will do
Just know there are many crossroads in life
and as you cross them always stay true
to you

Happy Birthday Kelsey, I love you.
