HAPPY BIRTHDAY EMMA!

EMMA

Emma don't you know

How long we've wanted you

Bringing a child into this world

Would make our dreams come true

Emma don't you know

all the tests we went through

Searching for the answers

To the path that led to you

Emma don't you know

That not a day passed by

Without asking God

To send you to my side

Emma don't you know

The hope that we believed

That soon there'd be a day

In our arms you'd be received

Emma don't you know

The tears of joy I cried

When the test results confirmed

Your picture from inside

Emma don't you know

As I sit here holding you

I'm also thanking God

For making our dreams come true

This was written by my good friend Lisa and sent to me after Emma was born. We have it hanging up in her closet and I read it to Emma every time she asks me to. I think of this poem as we celebrate Emma's birthday. She has brought much joy into our lives since she was born. We feel very blessed to have such a gift when we weren't supposed to have her to in the first place (or so the doctors said). I can't believe how fast the first three years went by!

Happy Birthday Emma.

I'm here!!!

Turning 1!

Turning 2!
