About Family

The night you came into this world/ Will always stay with me/ I took one look at your sweet face/ And loved you instantly/ The night was long and we were tired/ But it was all worthwhile/ I saw your Daddy burst with pride/ I saw your Mommy's smile/ Your Daddy came into the room/ Tears welled up in his eyes/ "I have a son!" he cried out loud/ "A perfect little guy!"/ My firstborn son was now a Dad/ And as he looked at me/ He said "I am the proudest man/ That there could ever be"/ He brought us to your Mommy's room/ I cried and hugged her tight/ "No gift from you could mean as much/ I have been blessed tonight"/ Then as I wiped my tears away/ I took you in my arms/ I promised you I'd hold you close/ And keep you safe from harm/ I looked upon your cherub face/ And whispered, "I love you"/ You are my heart, my gift from God/ You're Mamere’s dream come true.

I can’t believe a year has passed/ Since the day you came to be/ But one thing I am certain of/ You mean the world to me/ Your infectious smile and big brown eyes/ Can brighten any day/ And, oh, that giggle tickles me/ And melts my heart away/ You have two tiny baby teeth/ That you won’t let me see/ But then I get you laughing so They pop right out at me/ You’re quite the little travelin’ man/ As crawl turns into walk/ And calls to Mom and Daddy/ Means soon you’ll start to talk/ I marvel at how big you’ve grown/ And all the things you do/ The more I see of your sweet face/ The more MaMere loves you

At two years old you've grown to be/ A special little guy/ I smile at all the things you learn/ As each new day goes by/ Although I am not close at hand/ I love you just as much/ I hold you deep within my heart/ And miss your tiny touch/ I hear your sweet voice on the phone/ When Mom and Daddy call/ To hear "I love you, MeMere"/ Can make the teardrops fall/ Our visits few and far between/ I cherish every day/ Each memory I keep with me/ While I am far away/ Pictures of you fill my home/ I watch you growing strong/ I marvel at the words you speak/ or when you sing a song/ Someday you'll come and visit me/ We'll see the sights and then/ I'll think of all the fun we had/ Till I see you once again/ But while we are apart, my dear/ Remember one thing true/ The one thing that will never change/ Is how much I love you HOME BACK NEXT
