_original version of IN MY COCOON_

When Aaron was in mommy’s tummy I was tiny, warm, happy and content I felt the surprise at the news and from day one felt loved I heard Mommy’s singing and daddy's voice reactions to announcements calling out different baby names For the longest time I practiced smiling laughing giggling moving my arms and legs sucking my thumb doing somersaults recognizing mommy's and daddy's voices And I grew bigger and bigger I dreamt about playing with kittens petting puppies playing with goldfish and turtles chasing butterflies reaching out to the moon playing with little friends having bubblebaths wearing silly clothes playing with toys falling asleep to lullabies and bedtime stories playdates at the park learning to walk learning to talk learning my numbers and ABC's climbing trees flying my first kite riding my first bike touching and smelling flowers my first Easter egg hunt my first Christmas morning I felt so much anticipation and love for my arrival as mommy rocked me on the big chair by my crib And then early one morning, It was March 26, 2017 time to welcome little Aaron Arthur Joseph Wicks to the world AP: 2nd place 2020 Posted on July 31, 2020
