I never knew I could love so much,
until the day I felt your touch.
I softly kissed your tiny cheek,
and from under your lashes I saw you peek.
Your beautiful eyes so small and blue,
my sweet little baby just brand new.
I cannot wait to watch you grow,
from your little head to your tiny toes.
My daughter, my love, my little joy,
my little angel, my baby doll toy.
I promise to love you with all my heart.
I'm here for you from the very start.
I'll comfort you when you cry,
I'll answer true when you ask me, "Why?"
While you grow, be sweet and kind,
and show all others how much you shine.
My Daughter, My Love
From the day I was in labour, I was scared but at the same time couldn't wait to meet or see you. I was curious. Then the first crying moment...that's where I knew that what I'd been waiting...
I Never Knew

This is so beautiful. These were my thoughts at 33 when I delivered my daughter. Thank you for reminding us all what a wonderful gift a baby gives us all. Hope!
