Your eyes are brown
You never hardly ever wear a frown
You say, “Nanny, I’m almost as tall as you”
You whisper, “Nanny, I love you!”
You have a sweetness all your own
You have a way of bringing me home
You are brilliant, you are brave
You have a sensitivity that will save
You worry your brother has the same as you
Even on your birthday, you share a gift or two
You encourage him with your words so true,
“Come on, Ayden, you can do it too!”
You are his advocate in your words so tall
Already the loving way is your call
Perfect description of Nadia
