Who would have known

That you’d start out as an idea,

But would end up in my every thought.

Who would have known

That I was so sure I knew everything,

But now second guess my every move.

Who would have known

That nursing you could be such a struggle,

But be so beautiful in the end.

Who would have known

That when you cry, I might look strong

But am crying inside too.

Who would have known

That I love my sleep,

But would love and long for the nights of cuddles with you again.

Who would have known

That my life before you was great,

But so much more amazing with you.

Who would have known

That through all of the months of waiting, then the tantrums and tears,

I’d want to do it all over again.

Who would have known

That my favorite and best part of me,

Would be you.
