Super Sister Haley at Five! by Grandma Julie

We’ve waited for a year for April 2nd to arrive.
And now it's time to celebrate ‘cause Haley's turning five.
She’s grown four inches, lost four teeth, with four more starting to wiggle
But one thing that hasn’t changed this year is Haley’s special giggle.
And in her schools her teachers say that Haley’s quite a leader.
She helps her friends, does all her work, and she’s a terrific reader.
Finding images, magic tricks, and playing go fish are fun,
She does gymnastics, dance, and crafts, and oh how she can run!

The biggest change that came this year came on one special morn.
Haley’s heart grew twice its size the day Violet was born.
If there ever was a sister who can show you how it’s done,
Who watches out for Violet, then Haley is the one.
She plays with Violet when she crawls and when she tries to stand,
Then Haley guards her closely and takes her by the hand.
When Violet picks her up from school, Haley greets her with a boo.
She kisses her and gives her hugs then Violet starts to coo.
So as Haley grows and changes there’s one thing we know for sure.
With Haley as her big sister, Violet will always feel secure.
