I knew you were someone special

From the first time you looked at me with

Those big brown eyes, I knew you were special

From the first time you placed your tiny

Little hand in mine. I knew you were special

From the first time you left my supporting hands

And took your first steps. I knew you were special

From the first time you went to school I knew you were special.

From the first time you had a crush on a little boy,

I knew you were special.

From the first time you scored the winning goal

At the first basketball game, I knew you were special.

From the first time you got all dressed up

For your first middle school dance, I knew you were special.

From the first time you became a mother, I knew you were special.

From the first time your little girl called you momma.

From all your firsts I have seen that

You are someone special to me.
