On The Day We Met
Hello sweet baby girl
in your silky newborn skin,
your eyes so beautifully wide awake.
To be sure,
facing eternity this early in the day
is not possibly what you expected,
not necessarily your piece of cake.
I know you can’t appreciate
or realize it all quite yet,
just be aware that we noticed
you accomplished great things today.
Taking fearless first steps,
reaching out and touching those
who will love you forever faithfully.
And reminding us,
that we’ll always take
the greatest care,
as we joyfully journey
with you along your way.
A Note From Chris
Three years ago I wrote this poem for my best friend Marcia on the morning of the arrival of her grand daughter Kaitlyn DeAwna. Tomorrow, June 30, precious Kaitlyn will be three years old and she is a little “spitfire” just like her MomMom. Happy Birthday to Kaitlyn.
