Looking at your misshapen little red face, only a mother can appreciate the beauty when seeing her very precious baby for the first time. Eyes filled with happy tears as I looked at your blonde hair and blue eyes and inspected your tiny little fingers and toes. Never had I seen a more beautiful child – everything about you was simply perfect! Soon you were sleeping peacefully, safe in the arms of your adoring mother.

I can't think of anything lovlier than a new born baby. My oldest never cried, they bathed her and put her next to me in a clear bassinet and she smiled. She was content in her new surroundings. I loved your poem and the photo. I hope it is a top winner! #7 ; )
