1. Brand New Litle Daughter
She´s your brand new little daughter
So enchanted, sweet and smart
With a coo, she´ll have you smiling
With a laugh, she´ll own your heart
It´s the time for hugs and kisses
Reassurance when she cries
It´s the time for making moments
Full of love and Lullabies
For these golden days of childhood
Come and go so very fast.
Hold her tight and love her dearly
Make these preciouse moments last
2. For My Baby
My baby has fallen asleep
Finally his chest moves up and down
His soft curls at his ear
He smells clean, soapy from his bath
I know him inside out
The creases at his elbow
The plumpness of his cheeks
What makes him coo or cry
Is part of me
He's wrapped just in a towel
That's how he fell asleep
and so
I left him like that
I would not want to wake him
Or
We would both be up the night
And I've only just taught him to sleep -
Four hours at a go
It is a precious thing to be needed so, by
Such an innocent
Relied on entirely for sustenance
My maternal heart moulds his life
His days
And yet it does get tiresome for
I have a daughter to think of too
My baby lies asleep
And I am wide awake
Feeling how much I love him
Dreaming of what he will become
I hope to drift off soon
For in but a moment
The alarm clock will sound
And it will be time to get
My baby up for work
3. A Baby is a Miracle
This little tiny baby
Was sent from God above
To fill our hearts with happiness
And touch our lives with love
He must have known
We'd give our all
And always do our best
To give our precious baby love
And be grateful and so blessed
4. The Sweetest Gift
One day a mother went to a prison
To see an erring but precious son
She told the warden how much she loved him
It did not matter what he had done
She did not bring to him a parole or pardon free
Brought no gold, no pomp or style to see
It was a halo bright, sent down from heaven's light
The sweetest gift, a mother's smile
She left a smile you can remember
She's gone to heaven, from heartaches free
Those walls around you could never change her
You were her baby, and 'ere will be
5. Tiny One
How very often I have dreamed
A world of perfect bliss
To be the mother of a boy
Or of a tiny miss
To hold its tiny hands in mine
To count its tiny toes
And then to place a tiny kiss
Upon its tiny nose
To hold it very close to me
Warm against my breast
To gaze into its tiny face
Sleeping and at rest
Oh, what could be more perfect
Or what could hold more bliss
Than to be a mother of a boy
Or of a tiny miss
6. What Makes a Dad?
God took the strength of a mountain
The majesty of a tree
The warmth of a summer sun
The calm of a quiet sea
The generous soul of nature
The comforting arm of night
The wisdom of the ages
The power of the eagle's flight
The joy of a morning in spring
The faith of a mustard seed
The patience of eternity
The depth of a family need
Then God combined these qualities
When there was nothing more to add
He knew His masterpiece was complete
7. Why God Made LIttle Boys
God made the world out of His dreams
Of magic mountains, oceans and streams
Prairies and plans and wooded land
Then paused and thought “I need someone to stand
On top of mountains, to conquer the seas
Explore the plains and climb the trees
Someone to start out small and to grow
Sturdy, strong as a tree…” And so
He created boys, full of spirit and fun
To explore and conquer, to romp and run
With dirty faces and banged up chins
With courageous hearts and boyish grins
When He had completed the task He’d begun
He surely said “A job well done”
8. My Mother's Garden
My Mother kept a garden
A garden of the heart
She planted all the good things
That gave my life it's start
She turned me to the sunshine
And encouraged me to dream
Fostering and nurturing
The seeds of self-esteem
And when the winds and rain came
She protected me enough
But not too much because she knew
I'd need to stand up strong and tough
Her constant good example
Always taught me right from wrong
Markers for my pathway
That will last a lifetime long
I am my Mother's garden
I am her legacy
And I hope today she feels the love
Reflected back from me
9. The Gift
Her little arms reach out to me
When I walk in the room
This special little spirit, yes
This child of my womb
The trusting smile she gives to me
While gazing in my eyes
It causes me to feel as though
I've won the greatest prize
The dimple from her Daddy flashes
In her rosy cheek
The love I feel inside for her
So strong I cannot speak
I hold her close and kiss her brow
And whisper of my love
I say a prayer of gratefulness
And send it up above
Her Mother? What could I have done
To earn this gift, this right?
I'm still not sure, but I'll thank God
Each morning and each night
10. My Sweet LIttle Angel
I look at you now, my sweet little angel
And I cannot believe what I see
You're looking back, my sweet little angel
Looking back and smiling at me
It is such a surprise, my sweet little angel
How happy you seem to be
Because I was so scared, my sweet little angel
At what kind of mother I'd be
But you've taught me how, my sweet little angel
To know exactly what you need
I'm not always right, my sweet little angel
But you are so patient with me
I am your teacher, my sweet little angel
But you're more a teacher to me
You are now growing, my sweet little angel
And growing together are we
