Elias In Motion

Yeah, this one's for Elias,

my little nephew

From the moment you arrived,

everything felt brand new

Tiny little hands, tiny little feet

You started out so little,

just laying there

Now look at you—you got everybody stopping to stare Big beautiful eyes,

that little baby smile

You've been stealing everybody's hearts for a while

Elias, Elias, little superstar

You don't even know how loved you really are From your baby

days to the boy you'll become We'll be right beside you,

cheering you on

You got your little blanket,

keeping you warm Then you grew up and started causing the storm

(hahaha) Sitting in your chair like,

"Where's my food?" You see somebody eating and suddenly you're in the

mood!

"Give me a bite!" — that's Elias' way And if you don't

share, he might have something to say

Orange food on your face,

crumbs everywhere But everybody laughs because they just don't care

Elias, you're our little blessing Growing every day,

that's what we're seeing One year old and already so strong You've

been bringing happiness all along From your first little smile to the

laughs you make You're a precious little boy that nobody could replace

Elias,

remember when you grow You've got a family that will always love

you so

I remember those baby pictures too Wrapped in that blanket looking brand

new Then came the outfits,

the little blue stripes Looking so handsome under those camera lights

Then you got older and your hair got wild Walking around looking

like a mischievous child (hahaha) One minute you're sweet,

giving everybody a grin Next minute you're reaching for whatever you can

get your hands in

And when it's time to eat,

you already know Open up your mouth—here comes the food!

"Say ahhh!"

and you're ready to go Little Elias got a whole appetite

to show You might be little,

but your personality's big Already dancing around like you're doing a gig

Everybody laughing when you do your thing Because little Elias is the

family king

Yeah… Elias!

Little nephew, big heart,

big smile

Keep shining, little man,

wherever you go— Because you are our blessing

You are our joy

You'll always be

our little Elias
