For Joab Poem by CHARMAINE SIMPSON

Welcome to the world gorgeous boy,
Your soul chose the destiny that lay ahead of you,
Your mum and your dad wished upon a star,
They wished for a little boy to complete their circle.
You are a wish come true.

You were born to be a little brother -
Your beautiful sister will protect, love, and admire you,
As you both grow and share your life together as family.

Joab - your name is full of strength and character,
I am certain you will wear it well,
Your journey will be filled with fun, smiles, laughter and tears.
Each and every experience you are faced with along the way, will add to the admirable man that you will one day become.

May life gift you with success, and beautiful things,
With true friendships, and love –
A love that comes complete, with loyalty and commitment, and filled with all of the emotions that make it so special
Love completely – Live happily – Laugh out loud.
