Yaaaaaaaaayyyy!!

His little arms reach out to me 

When I walk in the room,

This special little spirit, yes

This wonder of my womb

The trusting smile he gives to me

While gazing in my eyes,

It causes me to feel as though

I've won the greatest prize

The dimple from his Daddy flashes

In his rosy cheek,

The love I feel inside for him

So strong I cannot speak

I hold him close and kiss his brow

And whisper of my love,

I say a prayer of gratefulness

And send it up above

His Mother? What could I have done

To earn this gift, this right?
I'm still not sure, but I'll thank God

Each morning and each night.
