Baby's Birthday

Today was my youngest's birthday I was hoping he'd sleep in Since his birthday's in the spring He's up before the sun Our days are organized chaos No matter the day of the week Today is special though It's my baby's birthday you see No big party or big gifts Just him and his brothers Climbing, jumping, swinging, sliding There is nothing more fun When you're only two years of age And so the day goes on Ice Cream cake the topper To a perfect day My youngest son's birthday Originally written April 30th, 2011
