Birthday Songs for Nissa.

Happy Birthday to you,

My two year-old ball of goo,

You look like a little imp,

And you act like one too.

Happy Birthday to independent Issie,

Our sassy tough-girl missy,

I hope you never ever change

We need you to protect your older sissy.

Happy Birthday sweet potato

Your nickname rhymes with tomato

But not much else that I can think of

Other than the island of Tobago.

From Inara:

Happy Birthday to my baby

Sometimes you're so crazy

You are my favorite sister

I'm glad you're not a mister.

Happy Birthday to our goofball

I see you running away and down the hall

You have the largest personality

Even though you're so small.

Happy Birthday, another year's passed

Two years have gone by so fast

I wonder who you are becoming

Watching you grow is such a blast.

Happy Birthday to all that you are

I know that you'll go so far

With your fearless attitude

I don't think you care about getting scars.

She totally jumped off that last step and nearly gave me a heart attack.

From Daddy:

Happy Birthday baby girl

With a head full of curls

Can you please start sleeping through the night

I can't think of another rhyme because I'm so tired.

Happy Birthday to you

And the things you know to be true

Like the pronunciation of "Di-la-saur"

Or how your favorite color is purple 

(but you always call it blue).

Raaaawr!

Happy Birthday to your smiles
And laughs that go on for miles
I hope that you'll stay the same
At least for a little while.

Happy Birthday today
I'll try not to cry
When I think about how big you are
And how I'm lucky you're mine.

Happy Birthday Nissa - thanks for two years filled with crazy dress-up costumes, manic laughter, 
and more sweet mischief than I ever thought existed.
Love you lotsest, sweet potato.
