On the Day You Were Born

Dear Rowen,

On the day you were born...

The last picture we took before you came....
We knew you might be coming that day, and were anxiously waiting.....
Your Dad left for work bright and early knowing that we might not be coming home that night....
I ate a big bowl of fruity Cheerios as my last meal before you were born....
    On the day you were born...

      Your Grandma and I left the house bright and early to head to the hospital, and I said goodbye to your brother and sister for a few days.... 

      We arrived at Southern Maryland Hospital, and before we knew it, they told us we were there to stay...
      And shortly there after, your dad arrived....

      On the day you were born...

      Things moved pretty fast...
      And before we knew what was happening, the clock struck eight....


      And you, Rowen Joseph Rivera, joined the world!
       
      Ten fingers, and ten toes, all 7lbs 10oz of you were perfect....
       
      First you were held by your dad....
      who might of cried just a little bit when he met you....

      And then by your grandma....

      And finally, after knowing you and your kicks for nine months, I got to meet you...

      On the day you were born....
      Our world changed forever.....

      And WE became a family!
