Happy Birthday Brooklynn!

Once upon a time there was a couple who were very much in love. They decided they wanted to start a family.
Soon they found out they were going to have a baby. The couple was very excited.
Then one night the baby was ready to arrive. On that night you were born.

On the night you were born, mommy was busy teaching violin lessons.
Daddy was busy golfing. Two weeks early from heaven you came –
Mommy called Daddy, and he left his game.

On the night you were born, mommy wasn’t so sure that you were really going to come
Although daddy tried to tell mommy that they needed to run
Mommy waited until she thought it was too late
Then Daddy and Mommy to the hospital they raced

The car zipped so fast down the road,
As mommy sat in the back and groaned.
Into the hospital they quickly leapt
As the doctor hurried to keep up step

9 minutes later you entered our world
with hair black and long, all of it curled.
You came in a hurry, each step of the way
With sweetness unmatched you came to stay

That night a sunset burned the sky
That made people stop before passing by
Eyes turned to Heaven, as yours turned to us
Little hands, little feet – all little, but enough.

The night you were born was an evening like no other
The whole hospital staff was there to help your mother
They couldn’t believe how fast you came
They couldn’t believe what a beautiful mane

On the night you were born the first thing that you heard
Was your mommy saying “oh my baby, my baby”, soft like a bird
And your daddy he came and wrapped you tight
Then we stayed with you always, all through the night.

You are your daddy’s little puppy
You are your mommy’s baby girl.
We will always remember the night you entered our world.
