Elated Expectations – For Kire

Long have we expected you
With baited breath we’ve waited
Little one, so sweet, so new
Your family is elated

9 long months our love has grown
It’s soon to overflow
Now you’ve arrived, and all this love,
We’re happy to bestow

So many memories to be made
So much to be learned
We’ll hold your hand through anything
When you succeed, when you get burned

Such a lucky little one you are
God has smiled upon you
To be born into this life, this family
Is such a dream come true

I say this with all certainty
Because I’ve had the honour
Of our family’s gracious love
For some twenty four years longer

Precious little bundle
I’m so glad to be your aunty
We’ll have years of joy together
Welcome to your family!
