Happy Birthday, Hot Rod!

Every child’s a miracle,

on that we can agree…

But this one’s a little different,

‘cause he belongs to me!

Such a tiny baby,

Reluctant to be born,

Has made my life complete

And my nerves, well worn!

Yes, he’s always smiling,

But he gets in trouble, too,

And I never will forget the time

M&M’s turned his lips blue!

He’s always causing ruckus,

Or merry mischief making,

but he sometimes likes to spend his time

with vacuuming and baking.

Oh, he loves to play with race cars

And with Lego’s, he’s a whiz.

And when he’s grown (please, not too fast)

He’ll be in the fire biz.

So, Happy Birthday, Joshua,

My amazing little boy…

I never knew one little guy

Could bring me so much joy.
