Poem to My Daughter on her 1st Birthday!!

I stumbled up on this the other day and I thought it was perfect considering our troubles with conceiving. Remember I found out I was pregnant on my 30th birthday. God is never early, never late, he is always on time!!


On your 1st Birthday, Brooke

I wished upon a star...
I closed my eyes and prayed,
I threw a shiny penny,
Into a well each day.

The same little wish was wished,
Upon my birthday cake; I asked the Lord...
Please hurry, just for heaven's sake!

I was trying to be patient,
But I had waited long enough
My wishing well with pennies,
Was now completely stuffed!

I knew that up in heaven,
They could see I really cared.
Just when I thought I couldn't bear another day
It is then, I learned you were on your way.

All the prayers and wishes,
Finally did come true
The blessing God gave me
Was my pregnancy with you!
