If I'd never had a baby
I could go about my life
Not thinking like a mother
Of other people's strife
If I'd never had a baby
I could sleep in come the morn
But I'd miss out on the joyful face
I've seen since she was born
There's much more love
Inside my heart
Than I ever thought could be
It tears right through my arteries
At times my heart skips beats
I'm glad I had a baby
When her face lights up the room
Because she sees me coming
With potatoes and a spoon
I play with her down on the floor
Such joyful happy moments
Then rock her down so peacefully
Soft as a gentle current
There's much more love
Inside my heart
Than I ever thought could be
It tears right through my arteries
At times my heart skips beats
Did you cry all afternoon as you wrote this!? So sweet Jen- you are a beautiful Mommy to your baby girl. I am so blessed to have gotten to watch you blossom these last 8 months. Lots of love, Mary
