Congratulations

Congratulations mostly Are for something that you've done - Got married or got published, Had a daughter or a son. Bought a home or bought a business, Got promoted, passed the bar, Won a big award, got hired, Traded in or bought a car. Yet since I've become a nana (Second grandchild, newly born), As I get congratulations, I feel just a little torn. I did nothing to deserve this - Just gave birth some years ago, But I proudly will acknowledge I have that new-nana glow. So I'll gladly take the kisses And the wishes and the praise 'Cause I've finally reached this milestone After living all these days!

You paid your dues along the way. Now this is how you collect your pay. You're rich in oh so many ways when blessed with children to share your days.
