Just 12 short months ago I made my big debut So now I'd like to celebrate My 1st Birthday with you. My little hands play patty-cake They peek-a-boo and wave..... They catch me while I learn to walk, And splash me as I bathe. They hold your fingers tightly And touch your heart so deep... My little hands reach out to you For hugs before I sleep..... My little hands are tiny now But yours will serve to guide me. And when I'm grown I'll still reach out And know you're right beside me.
