He Must Have Known

God must have known I would need chubby cheeks to get me through the day.

Giggles in the morning.

And wet kisses at night.

He must have known that hearing you say "I love you forever and ever!" would melt my heart.

And make me think of the first time I held you.

He must have known that your laughter

Would never cease to make me smile.

Even when it was caused by mischief.

Or that a hug would erase everything bad you ever did,

And give us both a new start.

God must have known I would need you by my side.

To hold me

And give me strength.

He must have known that nothing in this world would be worth anything without you.

Because He gave me you, and that means everything!
