The First Best Day of My Life

There was the day that I had your brother, or the day that I became our father's wife.

But the day that I gave birth to you, was the first best day of my life.

My sweet new born baby, your hand I held in mine.

The very best me that I never knew I could be, took place that day at that time.

Now the biggest piece of my heart belongs to this being so small.

My life, my love, and everything else, I'm happy to give you it all.

Know selfish needs, or focus on me, for now there is another.

My darling daughter, life will get harder, but I promise you'll have a good mother.

And I'll always give to you the very best that I can.

Thinking back to the very first time that I held your hand.

Keeping close to me the memory of one becoming two.

The firs best day of my life, the day God gave me you.
