To celebrate is to embrace an act of wonder and joy,
To show the whole world you have a girl or a boy.
A date that will be written forever in time,
A life, a love, a child of mine.
Tiny fingers and perfect toes,
Rosey pink cheeks and a little button nose.
A true miracle, you are born tonight.
In my arms, I cannot stop staring as I hold you tight.
Held close beside my heart, I gently sway.
You're exactly 20 minutes old; you're here to stay.
My precious gift, my child, my light,
You are everything that's perfect; you are just right.
So hello, my angel; I'd just like to say,
Welcome my darling, and happy birthday!
The Gift Of Life
My Perfect Gift
