Celebration Benjamin

I'm busy with my children
                               And sweet grandchildren too
                                  Celebrating Benjamin
                               Another dream come true!
                                    A joyful celebration
                               Of my grandson on his way
                                 Anticipation of his birth
                                  Which will be any day!
                              The planning of his shower
                               Kept me busy every hour
                             For the past couple of weeks
                               As I dream of baby cheeks
                               And cuddles with this new
                              Grandbaby dressed in blue
                             Now the baby shower's done
                                 And it was so much fun
                             Grandma's tired but recouped
                             Enjoying tea and Poetry Soup
                               My phone is close at hand
                              As I'm sure you understand
                                Cause Grammy is on call
                           Ben will arrive soon without stall!

Ah, yes, there is a lot of excitement and joy :) I remember when my babies were born, my parents and in-laws were so excited, they got to enjoy the baby and give them back, I didn't quite understand why they thought it was more fun to be grandparents, but I do now, there is not as much responsibility, but we get to love them and snuggle! Thank you for stopping over Vijay, I always enjoy your visits and comments <3 ~BJ

Yes, we are all so joyful, and you are right, each birth is a beautiful miracle! I can hardly wait to hold him. His mommy is my eldest daughter, and I will never forget the precious day she was born, she is such a joy. Her precious little bundle is so joyously anticipated. Please pray that she and the baby have an easy birthing process! Thank you for reading my poem and leaving your kind comment :) ~BJ
