Mommy and Daddy have sat anticipating
The day of your birth when all will be celebrating
You are on your way to make a debut
When our special family will start anew
Mommy just knows how sweet you will be
Because all she ate were cookies and ice cream
You grew so fast and altered the plan
Now, Daddy believes you’ll be a lineman
We already see what a perfect blend you are
You’re full of energy like Dad and have Mom’s bleeding heart
We tidied the nursery MiMi helped paint
Mommy cleaned everything without a complaint
We worried and schemed like any first-time parents
Dad took on extra jobs to prepare for an infant
Three little dachshunds knew something was up
It was hard not to notice Mom’s belly was stuffed
Mommy and Dad were so very proud
We shared your adventures with our students aloud
You might be a writer, a football player, a preacher
A policeman like Grandpa or even a teacher
You could be short or tall, blonde or brunette
It’s such a surprise and still better yet
You are already loved, that is, to say the least
Once you arrive our family will be a blessed masterpiece
