The Top of My Little Girl's Head


The top of my little girl’s head
When you were in your mama’s belly - the doctor measured the top of your head.
When you were born - the first thing I saw was the top of your head.
When I rocked you to sleep - I gently rubbed the top of your head.
When you learned to feed yourself - you had food on the top of your head.
When you started to walk - you fell and bumped the top of your head.
I love to kiss the top of your head.
When I bathed you - I trickled water down the top of your head.
When your hair was long enough - I placed a pretty pink bow on the top of your head.
When you wanted to learn to ride a bike - I placed a helmet on the top of your head.
When I peek in on you while you are sleeping - I kiss the top of your head.
When you are sad and sit upon my lap - I rest my cheek on the top of your head.
When I come home from a long day at work - I hug you and smell the top of your head.
When we dance - I looked down at the top of your head.
When we play dress-up - I place a crown on the top of your head.
When you play with your friends - I worry about the top of your head.
I love to brush the hair on the top of your head.
When you fall in love - another boy will kiss the top of your head.
When you get married - I will pull back your veil over the top of your head.
When you have babies - you will kiss the top of their heads.
When you need me - upon my chest you can always rest the top of your head.
