To My Baby
I knew of you before your birth, The waiting was so anxious and hard, Tears of joy fell on my cheek

I loved you before we ever met.
I prayed for you day and night,
Thankful your birth mother had chosen life.
You already held a place in my heart.
Weeks went by, and sometimes I cried.
Finally one day came a call with good news.
The first time I held you,
Precious Baby, so tiny and sweet.
I’m thankful your birth mother had chosen life.
You’ve brought much joy to so many lives.
I’ll love you forever, sweet little one.
Memories to treasure, a new life begun.
