My Little Girl

You are a miracle
You are a blessing from above
You brought joy to my soul
And pleasure to my eyes
In my heart I can feel it
An unexplainable feeling
Being a father
The best thing that I could ever ask for

Just thinking of you makes me smile
Holding you, looking in your eyes
I'm so grateful for having you
And everyday I pray
I pray that you'll find your way


You know I love you, I love you
My little girl, my little girl
I ask God to bless you, and protect you always
My little girl, my little girl

You're like a shining star
So beautiful you are
My baby girl
You light up my world
I pray that I'll get the chance
To be around and watch you grow
And witness your first steps
And the first time when you will call me “dad”

I could spend hours watching you
You're so innocent, so wonderful and pure
O God I can not express my gratitude!
But I'll raise her good, ‘cause all I want is to please You
And now I pray You'll guide her steps forever

Jadi inget waktu Cawu 1 Kelas 1 SD:

“Kalo dapet ranking 3 nanti dibeliin tempat pensil, kalo dapet rangking 2 nanti dibeliin buku, kalo dapet rangkin 1 nanti dibeliin tempat pensil sama buku” kata bapak saya yang mungkin saat itu sedang menyemangati anak kecilnya sebelum penerimaan raport pertama yang seharusnya cukup bersejarah untuk saya.  Saya tidak tau sebenarnya perasaan bapak waktu saya kecil, tapi sampai saya besarpun yang jelas, bapak masih menganggap saya “anak kecilnya”. Hehe. Sampai kapanpun mungkin beliau akan tetap melihat saya sebagai “anak kecilnya” yang hanya berubah ukuran saja. Ya nggak pak? Suatu saatlah saat kita bertiga berkumpul lagi saya tanyakan.
