Welcome to the World

Welcome to the world.
Our son,
So beautiful and perfect,
So naive and curious.

Your face lights up a room,
Bright eyes,
Head full of hair,
Just wonderful in every way.

Your form of expression is to cry,
Different ways to communicate,
To eat, need a change,
Ways to let the world know you're here.

Liam after Mom's Grandmother Tillie,
Henry after Dad's Grandfather Henry,
Both special in their own ways,
May you inherit these special traits as well.

Liam,
Our son,
May you make the world a better place,
Practice Tikkun Olam,
And above all be yourself.

We love you,
Our son,
Welcome to the world,
Our Pride and Joy.
