A Mother-To-Be

It took me by surprise one day;
When the doctor said you're coming to stay.

Not only will my tummy grow;
My family will too, just so you'll know.

Once the labor comes and goes;
I'll see ten fingers and ten toes.

So when you arrive I'll have to say;
I will love you each and every day.

We will rock and we will play;
And one day you will say;
My mom and dad loves me each and every way.

When you marry, then you will see;
That you will always mean the world to me.

We're doing a good job as you can see;
And we will always be a family.
