First night home

Love at first sight, their eyes so bright
Lit up a room, like candle in the night
In awe of their sweet smiles and tiny feet, they sleep close to our chest remembering every heart-beat

Long days and shorter nights, we get no sleep, up and around the clock  they Continue to eat
Trials and error of lost appetite, singing soothing  lullabies to calm them thru the night

Finally, hope for those with no sleep, lying in  the hallway for a quiet retreat
Baby wore them down and tired them out, that's what parenting is all about!
