#28 Happy Sweet Sixteen
Happy Sweet Sixteen
Sweet sixteen! Sweet sixteen!
We can't believe it's true;
The person sitting before us
Is really, really you.
You've grown from the colicky baby
With wailing through the night.
We have a tape of screams you made
That would give a ghost a fright.
We'd tiptoe to your little crib,
And put you down to nap.
The trouble was the squeaky board
Would give a little snap.
Then up you'd pop to play again.
We would sign and try anew
To get our little child to nap
So we'd see the whole day through.
As birthday celebrations changed
The years have brought great fun.
From cupcakes at the skating rink,
To clowns, balloons and sun.
You've done swimming at the Y,
And movies at the mall.
We've pinned a long and bushy tail
On a donkey in the hall.
You'll always be our sweetie --
Our baby in disguise;
And you should know you're very loved
In both your parents eyes.
May the days that lie ahead
Bring happiness untold;
Choices that are good and wise
For your life as it unfolds.
Sweet sixteen! Sweet sixteen!
Colored candles on a cake!
We send you a Happy Birthday
With a wish for you to make!
Real birthdays are not annual affairs. Real birthdays are the days when we have a new
birth. - Ralph Parlette
Death and taxes and childbirth! There's never any convenient time for any of them.
- Margaret Mitchell
We are all born naked and screaming and if you're lucky that sort of thing won't stop
there - Unknown
The day which we fear as our last is but the birthday of eternity. - Seneca
A diplomat is a man who always remembers a woman's birthday but never remembers her
age. - Robert Frost
Even at our birth, death does but stand aside a little. And every day he looks towards
us and muses somewhat to himself whether that day or the next he will draw nigh. -
Robert Bolt
Because time itself is like a spiral, something special happens on your birthday each
year: The same energy that God invested in you at birth is present once again.-
Menachem Mendel Schneerson
