K knits KALEIDOSCOPE

Today is a special dedication to a young lady who turns 11 on Sunday. 
I am lucky, for she calls me Mom. 
And I’d like to believe, this would be how she’d summarize her year gone by…

Yet another year passes me by 

Funny, but time does indeed fly 
I think my yesterdays were pretty fine 
So many moments were on cloud nine 
  
Every day, the only that will be 
From here I’ll carve my destiny 
Whether on sand or on stone 
Only perseverance will tell alone 
  
So, I believe it’s time to celebrate 
The good I am, the great I’ll get! 
I fill my heart with joy and hope 
Life is nothing but a kaleidoscope 
  
Lessons of wisdom in patterns mere 
Reflecting the laughter, resounding the cheer!

    Happy 11th birthday in advance to the young lady. The title of your post reminded me of these lines by Elton John “There’s a time for everyone, if they only learn. That the twisting kaleidoscope moves us all in turn”. Life is truly a kaleidoscope. Well said.

    When I was eleven I longed to be older. Now that I am I long to be eleven again. Sigh

    A very happy 11th birthday to your princess. You’ve captured her thoughts so well. I got a glimpse of greatness waiting to bloom and a mother who feels mixed emotions, but mostly pride and delight.
