For One More Day!


For one more day......

I will changer her diapers, give her a bath and dress her.
I will switch her soggy bibs as needed,
I will wipe up spit up formula from my clothes and hers.
I will feed her cereal and veggies, scoop it off her chin
and feed it to her again.

For one more day.....
I will cuddle with her and kiss her soft cheeks.
We will play patty-cake together and read books.
I will turn on her crib mobile and watch her play under her play gym
trying to grasp toys and most of the time succeed.

For one more day....
I will act silly and try to make her laugh.
I will stick my tongue out as far as I can while
saying "Blah" like Bard on Baby Einstein.
I will nuzzle my head in her tummy to hear her giggle.

For one more day...
I will wake around 4:00 a.m. to hear her fuss
over the baby intercom.
I will lean over her crib and see her squinting up
at me with a big grin on her face.

For one more day...
I will enjoy holding her, cuddling with her,
and hearing her talk her baby cooing sounds.
I will listen to her squeals and admire her fiestiness.
I will take pictures, so I can remember all the details
until we are together again.
