My Baby’s First Picture

The “Ultrasound”

My precious little babyI have loved you from the startYou are a tiny miracleLaying closely to my heartEach day I feel your presenceEach day you quickly growEach day your heart beats softlyAs only I could know.So I'll keep this in a special placeAnd remember each year throughOf this very special time of lifeThe months I carried you.

A Prayer for my baby

Little baby on the way, Getting bigger every day, Kicking mommy here and there, God please listen to our prayer.
Keep our baby safe and strong, Let her time with us be long, Help us teach her right from wrong, And we shall praise thee all day long.
This little daughter, though not yet here, Is loved so much, has grown quite dear. Delivery time is growing near, That's why we pray our plea you'll hear.
Please help up Lord, we pray to Thee With thankful heart, on bended knee, To raise this child that he might be, A happy child because of me.

Welcome to the World!

Welcome to the world, little one. You are finally here, created of love and wonder; your arrival joyously anticipated!
How eager to begin this journey called life! Some of life's lessons will not be easily learned, lessons such as there is more joy in giving than in receiving.

Remember, possessions are meant to enhance life, not to become the focus of it. Learn to be generous of spirit. Love unconditionally and trust that those you love will love you in return.
Let dignity, faith and strength be your constant companions. Expect to stumble and fall occasionally, in all manner of things, for such is learning. There is no shame in this, only in failing to pull yourself up again.

It is such a wonderful world! Walk it in wonder. Get the most from each hour, each day, each age of your life. Time will teach you that some of the

most beautiful things in life are things never actually seen by man...things like faith,

forgiveness and inspiration.

These things we see with our hearts.From this day forward others will surround you to guide, help, and protect you; both learning and teaching, listening and speaking, leading and following.

May they be gentle in dealing with you, holding your hand as tenderly as you are held in the hand of God. One day, all too soon it will seem, you will have become the teacher instead of the student.

Welcome to the world, Daphne Sofia

Baby Poems

When a baby enters this world,
into your life
A baby can make you forget your
worries and strife.
It really doesn't matter whether
it's a girl or a boy
A baby will melt your heart and bring you joy!
So shower a baby with love,
every single day.
Show a baby you truly care-
there's so many ways.
For with a blink of an eye,
time will fly out the door-
and your precious baby,
won't be a baby anymore!!
