Hope Come True

Little love, do you know how I patiently waited for you?

I hoped and I hoped that you’d be a dream that came true

I dreamt of your sweet smiles and tiny toes,

your little hands and your button nose.

I was hoping and hoping for you. 

Time passed, days felt like months and months felt like years

I began to worry and my worries turned to fears. 

I was hoping and hoping for you. 

Then I got the news, a baby growing inside of me

I smiled often imagining our family of two becoming three. 

You were that baby, my dream come true. 

We didn’t meet yet, but I knew I loved you. 

Now that you’re here, 

I know you, too will have dreams and at times, fears. 

I won’t always have answers but we can trust that our God always cares.

Keep hoping and hoping, the way I hoped for you. 

Things don’t always happen how we imagine, but sometimes hoping is the best thing we can do.

You are living proof, you are my biggest hope come true.
