Happy Birthday Wil... You're 1 month old today!

My Baby Boy and Me 

Author: Unknown

It's three a.m., they're all asleep

and no one's here to see

as we rock slowly back and forth,

my baby boy and me.

His little head is feather light

tucked up against my chin.

I hold his tiny hand in mine

and stroke his baby skin.

The house about us creaks and groans;

the clock hands creep around.

He snuggles closer to me still

and makes his baby sounds.

I love these quiet hours so much

and cherish everyone.

Store memories up inside my heart

for lonely nights to come.

And all too soon he'll be grown up,

his need for Momma gone,

but until then I still have time

for kisses and for song.

Time for quiet hours like this

with him cuddled in my arms;

where I wish he'd always stay -

protected, safe and warm.

And yet I know the day will come

when this tiny little hand

will be much bigger than my own -

he'll grow to be a man.

But, until then he's mine to love

with no one here to see;

as we rock slowly back and forth,

my baby boy and me.

Thank you for the poem Mom and Aunt Dawnie... from one Mommy to another - we love our boys!
