Another hour, another contraction, accompanied by another agonizing groan,
Contractions are getting closer together, oh thank God, soon my babygirl will be born.

Looking back on the day when I realized, I was having another boy or girl,
It was a peaceful sunny morning, I was feeding your brother, when suddenly I had to hurl.

A few months down the road, you gave mommy and daddy quite the scare,
At the hospital I saw you on ultrasound, twirling around, without an ounce of care.

Afterwards I was so relieved, seeing you on the baby monitor,
You were twirling like a ballerina and it hit me, your our first precious little daughter.

I thought about whether it would be mud fights or playing barbies with you,
Honestly, the only thing that matters, is kisses on the cheeks, and you knowing how much I love you.

I've been in labor for 42 hrs now, this pain has become unbearable.
One last push, not knowing what to expect, now you're here and so adorable.

I give you kisses on your tiny little cheeks, sobbing as I say goodbye.
I don't blame you for not choosing to stay here, you chose to be my Ballerina in the Sky.
