An open letter to our family and friends....

Dear Family and Friends
Have you ever cleaned your pocket
And discovered a ten dollar bill ?
You really weren't expecting it,
But it gave your heart a thrill !
Have you ever opened the door
And there before your eyes
You saw the flower man standing
With an arm full of surprise ?
Well a surprise is exactly what's happened
As our bio clock ticks away
Now life has been gracious and perfectly good
By sending baby 6 our way!
We could have told you in person
But it's very important you see
That we only see thought and reactions
Of happiness, smiles and glee !
So once you've had time to digest it
And been able to ponder it all
When you have a nice word about all that you've heard,
Feel free to give us a call !

Congratulations!! What a fantastic poem

Marnie Horton said...

Thanks everyone :)

I should add that the poem is not mine! I actually don't know who to credit for it but I picked it up from the large families forum on EB.

Congratulations and huge hugs. Six is a wonderful number IMO.

We got lots of negative comments when we too announced number 6 was on the way :( I know how much it can hurt. So big hugs
