Happy Birthday to You

We wanted to wait until the day you arrived

When they said “it’s a boy,” we were super surprised.

 

You were such a big baby, you weighed nearly 10 pounds

With blue eyes, brown hair, and hardly ever a frown.

 

We held you and loved you in our arms so tight

We never put you down;  not at all that first night.

 

When Reichen came for a visit, he was  only a year and a half

We said, “Here’s you new brother;”  he then kissed you and laughed.

 

You’ve grown up so much since that very first day

You walk and you talk and you can’t wait to horseplay.

 

You now sleep in a twin bed and eat taco meat

You’re learning to count and are quite an athlete.

 

I can’t believe time has passed, it has happened so quickly

You’re two years today, which just doesn’t seem likely.

 

It’s our honor to love you, you’re such an amazing boy

Happy Birthday Latham Mason, you’re our pride and our joy.

  3. Happy belated birthday, Latham! I love this rhyming tribute, especially because the sentiments you convey are so familiar to me as the mom of two boys 20 months apart. My baby turns one on Friday – where does the time go? Thanks for the reminder of everything we have to look forward to in the year ahead!
