For my unborn baby...Feb. 24, 2005
There is a gift I carry
More precious than diamonds or gold.
A gift for me to cherish,
And forever my heart to hold.
A gift that changes me,
But also changes us all.
A gift that brings so much,
Though it is so very small.
This gift was given to us
To make us change our ways,
To stop us being selfish,
And give thanks for everyday.
Now this gift adds it's light
To another given before.
So now we have twice the love,
And everyday means so much more.
More precious than diamonds or gold.
A gift for me to cherish,
And forever my heart to hold.
A gift that changes me,
But also changes us all.
A gift that brings so much,
Though it is so very small.
This gift was given to us
To make us change our ways,
To stop us being selfish,
And give thanks for everyday.
Now this gift adds it's light
To another given before.
So now we have twice the love,
And everyday means so much more.

My wife glowed a lot when she was with our first child. Now, I'll never be able to fully relate to this because I am a man, but I can understand to some extent...I've never seen her happier than when she was pregnant...:) As a matter of fact, we're actually trying for our second child right now...Thanks, this was a delightfully uplifting piece, it made my day! :)
