DeAnnaLynn Marie
Eyes as blue as the sea
A smile so wide, laughter so sweet
Don’t you know? You mean the world to me!
From a baby I have watched you grow
Into the “Dede” we all know.
God has blessed us with you
This we know, is true.
I do believe that with your birth
The Lord subtracted years of hurt.
You see, my Dear One
Your existence brings our family home–
We all long to see you and smile with delight
So much that your Aunt will drive into the night
Just to see you for a few hours or so…
You are a piece of my heart, don’t you know?
I’ve loved you since before we even met!
Always,
Aunt Bre
No matter what you see, you get Bre... 
I declare today “Awesome Aunts Who Write Poems for their Lovely Nieces Day” on the Internet. 🙂
*Takes a bow* Thanks doll!
i love it! it gave me goosebumps, & made me cry. i have to say, she is our everything!!! 🙂 love u!
I love you too!
I fully believe that Tyler has some of the best Aunts on the planet… But it sounds like you’d rank right up there with him too.
Thanks!! She’s sorta my “practice baby” … HAHA. But I wonder to myself, ‘If I love her this much how much will I love my own babies?’
My sister opened a door of love for me when she had Dede. It’s breathtaking at times.
And I read it again, and cry… I love you Bre! You ARE her favorite & the best Aunt She could ask for!
Thanks, sister. I love you.
