I was having a bad day
Nothing really bad, just stress at work
Then a call telling me my car was just hit, a very bad day
I rush to the car, parts on the ground but no one hurt.
Back to work, where was I before I was called away?
Lunchtime comes before we know it, I can escape
Off to pick up lunch, and do the banking on the way
A call on my cell, hey do you have a blank videotape?
Today is the day for our ultra-sound
Of course I do, you can pick it up before your appointment
Your Mom showed up, I got the tape round
We hugged in the driveway, my heart in fulfillment.
After the appointment she brought the tape and photos of you to me
I had no idea that my heart would feel this way
Other Grandmother?s have told me, this would be different, you will see
When I saw you in that little black and white picture, what could I say?
Today I saw my baby's baby
It was our first meeting
I love you so completely
We watched the video
I just watched you move so fluidly, like a dancer
The sight of you stretching, waving your arms
Two arms, two legs, a little ear
Then I saw your heart... beating... strong
The video caught the sound of your heart beating steadily
At that moment you stole my heart
You will have it always
I am crying happy tears right now
I love you so completely.
