Baby Shower Boy

Congratulations, dear one, as you celebrate this hour When you are called to be a mom and have a baby shower The little lad that grows within will be your very first And on the day that he is born your heart will nearly burst You have a growing sense of pride that you will have a son And now you know the boy inside is loved by everyone A baby is a miracle who makes your life complete Because of how he grins at you in spite of what you eat So many broken couples are left standing on the brink The gap in their relationship may need a missing link The married life can rank a nine for ladies and their men A baby is the kind of one who makes your life a ten Your mother is the anxious soul who found it hard to wait But now you know the reason why she wanted you to date Her gratitude for your success is more than she can say I guess you know the rest of us are feeling glad that way Your husband is the happy one to have a baby boy For what is there about a son that daddy's don't enjoy They get to sit and proudly watch that special thing you do But maybe changing diapers will be good for both of you The freedom that you used to know is now a lonely word And what you get is just a glow for all you have endured The gracefulness in how you work is really just a ploy To show that you can be a mom and do what you enjoy!
