The special request: Cheryl, of Northern California, writes that she just gave birth to a beautiful, healthy, seven pound two ounce baby girl during the first week of December. Kristen Marie has her father's dark coloring, Cheryl says, but she isn't likely to get anything else from him. A single Mom, Cheryl would like a special poem, something she can give to her daughter when Kristen is old enough to appreciate it. Something to tell her what a wonderful, joyous moment her birth brought into her mother's life.
I was inspired to write this poem after reading Cheryl's request. I am a mother and I have shared the experience of birth and the miraculous gift of life. The bond mother and baby share is truly a miracle in itself. I hope this expresses what Cheryl was searching for. Congratulations, Cheryl!
