The Family Way

I loved her right from the start Willingly gave her all my heart And when she walked down the aisle I could do nothing at all but smile When we moved into our flat I thought to myself, that was that Once we had our home together We would just grow old together Then I saw the pregnancy tester When she had reached the first Trimester And then came another level of joy We would have a little girl of boy Now I may have tended to fuss My devotion may have been uxorious But she was all important in my life So I fussed around my primiparous wife And when the great day finally came We still hadn’t even settled on a name But our daughter blessed our union And I had two loves to dote upon
