JOHNATHAN AND ME

Danielle and Johnathan: March 27, 2005
Danielle, Johnathan, and Friend: March 27, 2005I cried the day I lay you down
In the bassinette so sound

In the NICU I left
A child so lovely
A child so blessed

I brought you home
And cried some more

When my father and mother
They held you like their own

They made me realize what it meant
To be a parent in so many respects

I was raised with different challenges
Sometimes those hills felt like mountains

As we raise each other to this day

A mother and son
A proud family
