Your girl and your boy

Children complete us and make us feel whole

They are the route of our hearts

And the core of our soul

They make us better people

From the moment they arrive

The first smile that they give you

Makes you feel so alive

They are the reason we are created

The reason we are here

They give us the courage to conquer

Any of our fears

They are extensions of us

Only more pure and true

We feel their pain and their love

For them, there is nothing we would not do

Having children is a blessing

A gift and a joy

Never take it for granted

Your girl or your boy

Hold them close to your heart

Give them wings to fly

Teach them respect and love

Make them reach for the sky

Make them laugh

Make them smile

Hug them tightly for a while

Give them security

Give them hope

Give them a place to call home

Let them know in their darkness

They are never alone

Enjoy each day

They grow up so fast

That infancy and childhood

Will not always last

But each stage they pass through

Will be such a joy

Watching them grow into adults

Your girl and your boy
