birthday flowers

Shane surprised Ellie with flowers for her birthday.
She was beaming from ear to ear.
Completely in heaven.
Just when she thought it couldn't get better
He made her a birthday card.
With her standing in her flowers.
She stares at it with a big smile on her face.
all.the.time.
I think he will have to buy her flowers every year
from here on out.
A new tradition.

She always tells me she has a secret.
Then I beg her to tell me what it is.
Even though I know what she is going to say.
Then she always whispers "I'm Dad's best girl...he told me so"
Every bit of her believes it.
There is no wonder why.
