One... day we fell in love
Two .. of us forever
Three... little words meant to last; Our
Four... eyes looking at each other
Five... months before we said "I Do"
Six... was the day in the month of June
Seven... months later,a baby to be
Eight... more months seem like Eternity
Nine... which is the month September, Came-
Ten.... tiny fingers and toes to remember
Eleven ... people I called to warn
Twelve... was the day of the month you were born
One... on the hour; the minutes of twenty four
Two... big blue eyes & so much more
Three... hard hours of labor
Four... shots to sedate
Five... minute test of the APGAR score
Six... pounds, one once was her weight
Deliverly went fine with nothing going wrong,
a tiny little girl only
18" inches long
19... years old, I got pregnant with you, but i'd be
20... by time you were due; Pregnant again at 21...
22... months apart; our daughter and son
Years go by, and both of you are growing
Teenagers now, and adulthood is showing
Soon the two of you will leave the nest
Mom and Dad will get to rest
-One... will leave- in
-Two... more years
-Three... of us left to dry our tears
-Four... years from now, you'll both be gone...
One... day- just
Two... will carry on......
