Little Smiles
Words by: Barbara Lintecum
Music by: Freedom Drive and Barbara Lintecum
The first time I saw you
My life was forever changed
A love I’d never felt before
Started crying out my name
Walking and talking happened so fast
Before I knew it, school days were here.
And as you stepped up on that bus
It took all my strength to hold back the tears
Chorus
Little smiles, tiny hands
Catching fireflies, playing in the sand
No matter where God takes you in this world
You will always be my little girl
In your beautiful innocence
I hear God speak to me
For in your eyes I catch a glimpse
Of how He wants me to be
Chorus
The years have started to fly and soon you will be grown
But in my heart you’ll always be…

I have a little girl and I marvel at her as well. This is such a beautiful song. It wasn’t until I was 34 when I had her…I had always wanted a girl and I feel so blessed to have her in my life. With my busy life, I find I have to remind myself to stop and savor the moments of my children’s youth…they grow so quickly. Thank you for sharing this song!
