Perfect Poem by Jodie Hardy

An image of an angel lies before me, perfect!
Every second of wishing was worth it
Months of waiting have come down to this
My very own child, slowly moving in for a kiss
You kick out your legs and reach out your small hands
How far you have come since we first saw your scans
From the fine dark hair that lies messily on your head
To ten tiny toes, how small you look on the bed
Hours have passed since we first heard your cry
Still I can't believe that your really mine
To love and get to know, encourage to grow
Into an adult that everyone will love to know
I give my life over to you happily
Welcome to you, the newest member of our family.
