At the moment of conception
From when you stirred within
To your first kicks
And bouts of hiccups
I loved you
At the moment of your birth
Your tiny cry sprung forth
And you breathed
Your first breath
I loved you
At the moment I saw you
Wrapped in white so soft
With long fingers and toes
And big blue eyes
I loved you
At the moment I became a mother
My husband became a father
You became our daughter
And we became a family
I loved you
