From her nose to her toes,
Our little Princess grows.
But as she gets bigger,
Her mum needs to help her figure.
That bottoms should be hidden
By some pretty pants, maybe with a ribbon.

Young, carefree and a little sassy.

And we love her spirit for disregard.
So celebrate her carefree ways,
And let's embrace our little princess days.
