Baby Face


(adapted from an old song)





Baby Face,


you've got the cutest little baby face,


There's no other who could take your place,


Baby Face,


my poor heart is jumpin'


you sure have started somethin'


Baby Face,


I'm in heaven


when I'm in your small embrace.


We didn't need a shove,


Cause we just fell in love,


With your pretty baby face!





Babies Have so Much to Do





In a world that's all brand-new,


Babies have so much to do!





Laughing, making funny faces,


Finding out those ticklish places...





Cuddling up and wiggling toes,


Looking cute in tiny clothes...





Tasting, touching, reaching high,


Crawling under, scooting by...





Learning words and having fun...


Making memories one by one.








A Baby's Skies





Would you know the baby's skies?


Baby's skies are mother's eyes


Mother's eyes and smile together


Make the baby's pleasant weather.





Mother, keep your eyes from tears


Keep your heart from foolish fears


Keep your lips from dull complaining


Lest the baby think it's raining.





Perfection





you are more perfect


than I could have hoped,


more beautiful than I could have dreamed,


more precious than I could have imagined...


...I love you more than


I could have known








baby song


(Diane Woolley)





At first you didn't lift your head;


You didn't know to smile.


The time before you knew my voice


Seemed such a long, long while.


I couldn't wait for you to roll,


And then to sit and clap.


And now you're off and crawling,


Not helpless in my lap.





Why didn't someone tell me


How fast a baby grows,


That every little baby stage


Soon comes, but sooner goes.





So I'll enjoy the fleeting time


Before you learn to walk.


And treasure every tiny noise


Before you learn to talk.





For soon you'll learn to walk,


Then run,


And talk and sing a song,


And never be my babe again.


The babe's forever gone.


Little baby, take your time,


For while you're tiny, you are mine.








Baby


(Helen Steiner Rice)





A wee bit of heaven


drifted down from above -


A handful of happiness,


a heartful of love.





The mystery of life,


so sacred and sweet -


The giver of joy


so deep and complete.





Precious and priceless,


so lovable, too -


The world's sweetest miracle,


baby, is you.








Rock-a-bye Baby


(by Ruth Hulbert Hamilton


adapted by Wendy Lyn)





Cleaning and scrubbing


can wait 'til tomorrow


For babies grow up,


we've learned to our sorrow.





So quiet down cobwebs,


Dust go to sleep,


I'm rocking my baby


and babies don't keep.








Star


(Dessie Reeves, 10/21/04 - used with permission)





Star is our


beautiful baby girl


with a tiny soul


so


sweet and new,


That your Daddy and I


knew


that the world


was waiting for


an


adorable little girl


just like you...





Blessings





Blessings come in many shapes,


In sizes large and small,


But a brand new little baby


is the sweetest of them all.








All You Are


(by Michael Card - based on a poem by George MacDonald)





Where did you get those eyes so blue?


They're from the sky that you passed through.


Where did you get that little tear?


Did you find that it was waiting for you here?





And what about your little nose?


He knew you'd need it for the rose.


And as for your soft curly ear,


He knew there would be songs for you to hear.





How can it be that you are you?


He thought you up and so you grew.


Because you're mine, it must be true


That He was also thinking of me too.





For all you are, and all you'll be,


For everything you mean to me,


Though I don't understand,


I know you're from the Father's hand.





"If I could speak, here's what I would say..."





(C. Knauf 2003 - used with permission from the author)





If I could speak, here's what I would say


Happy in your arms, I want to stay.


I am your gift, and you are mine too!


Let love bond together, both me and you.





Lets enjoy this time, right here, right now.


Don't let a schedule furrow your brow.


Right now is the time, for me to hold,


when you're less busy, I'll be too old.





Snuggle me tenderly, close to your chest


it is here next to you, I am, at my best.


Your rhythmic breathing and beating heart,


Contentment, and comfort, to me impart.





To see you, smell you, assured by your voice,


all, wonderfully simple, yet help me rejoice.


A cuddle, a kiss, some playful fun and frolic,


Can banish a mood, and prevent nasty colic.





Hold me, hug me, please show me your day


You'll be sharing your love, in a marvelous way.


My learning is best when perched at your side


with arms as my classroom and you as my guide.





Please hold me up high, so I might see


All the many wonders, surrounding me.


With time spent close, as you socialize,


My mind expands and clearly I vocalize!





When you work, walk or take a short trip


With me safely balanced, upon your hip


My muscle tone and self esteem are greater,


I'll be walking much sooner, rather than later.





When we are in 'touch', it reduces our stress


We are happiest then, and worry much less.


Safe in your arms, dispels all my fears.


My beaming smiles, replace anxious tears.





To dream of our future is significant too,


And I know a career is important to you.


When I am older, then we'll join in the race


We'll be more able, to keep up the pace.





Right now, what I know, as certain and right


Is that you are my sun, the source of my light.


I don't need many things, expensive or new.


What I need is your love, your time and you.








What a Baby Costs





How much do babies cost? Said he


The other night upon my knee;


And then I said: "They cost a lot;


A lot of watching by a cot,


A lot of sleepless hours and care,


A lot of heartache and despair,


A lot of fear and trying dread,


And sometimes many tears are shed


In payment for our babies small,


But everyone is worth it all.





For babies people have to pay


A heavy price from day to day -


There is no way to get one cheap,


Why, sometimes, when they're fast asleep


You have to get up in the night


And go and see that they're all right,


But what they cost in constant care


And worry, does not half compare


With what they bring of joy and bliss,


You'd pay much more for just a kiss.





Who buys a baby has to pay


A portion of the bill each day;


He has to give his time and thought


Unto the little one he's bought


He has to stand a lot of pain


Inside his heart and not complain;


And pay with lonely days and sad


For all the happy hours he's had.


All this a baby costs, and yet


His smile is worth it all, you bet."

it's a good "welcome poem" all you have to do it print it out or copy it in your handwriting!
Reply:O fountain of Bandusia,


clearer than glass


deserving of sweet wine


not without flowers


tomorrow you will be presented with a kid


'whose forehead, swollen with horn's newly growing


predicts both love and battles.


In vain: for tomorrow your cold waters


will be stained red


with the blood of the ofspring of the playful flock.





The season of blazing dog star


cannot touch you, your cold waters, provide welcome relief


'to the oxen wearied by the ploughshare


and to the wandering flock.





You too will become a famous fountain


when I tell of the holm-oak which


overhangs the hollowed rocks


from where your babbling waters tumble down.
Reply:A baby is an angel whose wings decrease as his (her) legs increase.


People who say they sleep like a baby--rarely have one!


Babies are such a nice way to start people.


A baby is ablank check made out to the human race.





Hope this helps.
Reply:Scrubbing and cleaning can wait till tomorrow,


For children grow up we've learned to our sorrow.


So quiet down cobwebs, dust go to sleep,


I'm rocking my baby, and babies don't keep.
