TO MY SWEET BABY GIRL




I WAS BLOG SURFING TODAY, AND CAME ACROSS A DAD WHO WROTE A POEM TO HIS KIDS ON HIS FAMILIES BLOG.. IT WAS SO CUTE! I DIDN'T KNOW THIS FAMILY SO I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND WHAT WAS SAID, BUT YOU COULD TELL THIS WAS WRITTEN FOR NO ONE ELSE BUT FOR HIS KIDS TO READ, IT GAVE ME THE IDEA TO WRITE ONE TO BROOKLYNN AND I THOUGHT INSTEAD OF GIVING A MILLION DETAILS ABOUT MY BIRTH AND THIS SWEET BABY GIRL, i'D WRITE HER A POEM..YA IT'S CHEESY BUT IT'S MEANT FOR ME AND HER TO HAVE!

BROOKLYNN RAE WRIGHT
SINCE DAY ONE, YOU'VE SLEPT THROUGH THE NIGHT

BORN APRIL 29TH TWO THOUSAND TEN
BEFORE THE SUN SET 8:20 PM.

6 POUNDS 8 OUNCES, 19 INCHES LONG
I THOUGHT "ID FEEL DIFFERENT" OH WASN'T I WRONG

THE LOVE FOR YOU, IS THE SAME AS YOUR BROTHER
COULDN'T LOVE MY BABIES MORE THEN ONE ANOTHER

WE NAMED YOU BROOKLYNN BUT CALL YOU "SISTER"
KINDA LIKE ETHAN IS ONLY CALLED "MISTER"

YOU HAVE MOMMIES EYES AND SORRY MY NOSE
I SIGHED WHEN I SAW 10 FINGERS AND TOES

YOUR HAIR WAS DARK, BUT NOW IS LIGHT
YOU'RE BEGINING TO LOOK, A LITTLE MORE LIKE A WRIGHT

I PEEKED AT YOUR DADDY THE MINUTE YOU CAME
HIS EYES LET ME KNOW "HE'D NOT BE THE SAME"


THIS YEAR WASN'T EASY BEFORE YOU ARRIVED
SOME DAYS I WOULD WONDERED "HOW I'D EVER SURVIVE"

LIFE ISN'T EASY I'M NOT GONNA LIE
BUT YOU BEING HERE IS MY REASON TO TRY

YOU'VE CHANGED WHO I AM, WHO I WANTED TO BE
HOPE YOU SPEND YOU'RE LIFE TOO WANTING TO LOVE ME

OUR LIVES CHANGED AGAIN, BUT KNOW THAT'S OK
I'D NOT CHANGE ONE THING, NOT ONE SINGLE DAY

WE LOVE YOU BABY GIRL, HOPE YOU KNOW THAT IT'S TRUE
I'M BLESSED TO SPEND MY LIFE, GETTING TO TAKE CARE OF YOU!

LOVE YOU MOMMY

I am crying my eyeballs out right now. You need to get that printed on pretty paper and hang in her room. That was amazing! You are so talented.
