The card

Cleaning out my desk I found a card I had made a friend of mine when her son was born with a poem I wrote.

I thought it was nice

I decided to share

ONE OF THE GREATEST THINGS

In all the world you'll find no greater joy
Than holding your sweet little baby boy

Hold him often and hug him tight
They grow so fast, as if overnight

You'll turn around, blink and stare
And a little boy will be standing there

While little boys are precious too
There is a certain magic only babies can do

A cry in the night means his lungs are strong
He's hot or cold or his diaper's on wrong

Remember, he doesn't cry to make you mad
Something in his little world has made him sad

So cuddle him up with a loving touch
It is impossible to do this too much

It is an old fashioned notion, but I think it's true
This is one of the greatest things you'll ever do

Damn straight there Jojo. I gave my son his first behind the wheel driving lesson last night and had to curl up into the fetal position myself and cry. Yesterday I was buckleing him into his infant seat. Sniff.
