The Best Day of My Life

I always thought that I knew love How intense that feeling could be But, you were my gift from above Just exactly what I'd need I never thought I'd be a mother I thought that time had past It was a shock to believe another For I was pregnant at last I was 39 at the time I felt kind of tired and old My doctor said that I was fine And a child is precious like gold It wasnt always very easy Being pregnant, working each day Some times I'd get kind of queasy But, eventually it went away Tests, ultrasounds, bloodwork , all were fine An amnio to see if you were okay Monthly appointments, filled much of my time Everything was progressing each day I worked until the day before Your grandparents flew out to see I was very ready, couldn't take no more Wanted my child for just for me Finally the day had come,when I was to see my son I got up early, got everything ready, even checked your room. Slowly I drove to the hospital ,awaiting for the fun For this was it what I had waited for, i'd see you before noon. At the hospital they readied me A Doctor put a catheter in my back My Mom and Dad rushed up to see Their grandchild in a wrap I told them of my nervousness How I forgot the words to say So together we as a family We were able to pray I had to wait for a long time Emergency twins were on the way They said I was next in line In the holding room was where I stay So at 930 they brought me in to the room They draped a sheet in front of my face I hoped my head wouldn't zoom I wanted to start this race At 9:54 you came into my life Your Dad ran to the end to see The child that was bore by his wife We became a family of three My eyes filled with tears and I felt joy It was all so new, I never had felt it before Here's your child, perfect, handsome, and its a boy For on that day my love for you grew even more The bond between a mother and son Is a story that can't be told To look into your little eyes, I was overcome My memories of that first time will never get old So on this day when you had came Was the best day I could have ever thought Never mind fortune and fame To have a child is a lesson in life that can never ever be taught.
