Hello Christine,
Yes, double figures... ;)
There are many reasons to celebrate double figures...
At least I thought so when I was young... (the one I didn't like was when I hit double figures in my pants size! LOL Luckily I went back down, but hell... that was a difficult one.) LOL
;)
A beautiful poem and one which she will no doubt treasure forever...
Happy 10th birthday Amali...
(Your'e an awesome Grandmother Christine)
Cat

You write amazingly well and bring out charm through it all. The picture merges well too. I love the choice of picture. I pray your poem is recognized soon.
My favorite lines are:

A dear little girl, grandaughter of ours
We have watched you grow with the years
Pleasures you bring to our lives every day
So it's my turn to send you 10 cheers.

Christine,
The is a very lovely tribute to your beautiful Amali honoring her 10th Birthday. I am sure she was excited and happy to received it from her loving grandmother.
There is a typo in the last line "birthday" and you also left out the word "I" in the second stanza third line. Thanks for sharing a most enjoyable read. Blessings.................Portia
