Francesville Baby Shower

Adorable cakes made by our hostess, Margaret

Chance entertaining the guests

Admiring the outfit from aunt Sarah should the baby be a girl.  Onesie reads "My Aunt is My BFF"

Chance wearing the Bumbo on his head :)

"Homecoming" bow if the baby is a girl.  I was afraid he would stretch it out.  Not a flattering picture, but a classic...

More gifts for a very fortunate baby

Sarah and I crying after Arlene read the song "Goodnight Kiss"
I count it as a privilege
I count it cause for praise
to kiss my children goodnight
at the close of everyday
for I know too soon they're off and gone
and walkin' out the door
and I'll never have a child to kiss
goodnight anymore

It's very strange how times have changed
from the present to the past
when did they grow so quickly
the time has flown so fast
for it seems that only yesterday
I helped him with his shirt
or pat my baby on the back
or kissed away a hurt

tell the story read a book
wipe a nose or tie a shoe
they never ask me to rub their back
the way they used to do
once it was a bother
just a troublesome kind of chore
now I would give anything
to do it just once more

mommy bounce me on your knee
daddy flip me in the air
throw a rubber ball to me
and help me comb my hair
mommy tickle my tummy
daddy hold me high
let's go outside for awhile
or make a kite to fly

I count it as a privilege
I count it cause for praise
to kiss my children goodnight
at the close of everyday
for I know too soon they're off and gone
and walkin' out the door
and I'll never have a child to kiss
goodnight anymore

And I'll never have a child to kiss
goodnight anymore...
