baby poem/quote?
I remember a few years ago someone on here had a baby and mentioned a sweet little poem or quote that was about carrying a child or giving birth to a child or something and I loved it! I can't for the life of me remember how it goes otherwise I would look it up! I would like to paint something and include it to go in the nursery once we get to that point. I know that I'm not giving much info (I really can't remember!) but if you have any idea what I'm talking about, let me know! I feel like I've lost my mind hahaha

I found it!!!!! I seriously have been going through old posts like crazy and found it!!! It was from crows' nursery...
"No one else will ever know the strength of my love for you.
After all, you're the only one who knows what my heart sounds like from the inside"
LOVE that. And totally going to include it in baby Rivera's nursery
This was posted on our month board a few days ago... I like the last verse.
Mother, O Mother, come shake out your cloth,
Empty the dustpan, poison the moth,
Hang out the washing, make up the bed,
Sew on a button and butter the bread.
Where is the mother whose house is so shocking?
She's up in the nursery, blissfully rocking.
Oh, I've grown as shiftless as Little Boy Blue,
Lullabye, rockabye, lullabye loo.
Dishes are waiting and bills are past due
Pat-a-cake, darling, and peek, peekaboo
The shopping's not done and there's nothing for stew
And out in the yard there's a hullabaloo
But I'm playing Kanga and this is my Roo
Look! Aren't his eyes the most wonderful hue?
Lullabye, rockaby lullabye loo.
The cleaning and scrubbing can wait till tomorrow
But children grow up as I've learned to my sorrow.
So quiet down cobwebs; Dust go to sleep!
I'm rocking my baby and babies don't keep.

I had the last stanza of that one in my siggy for awhile, I got a lot of comments on it on TB. By looking at my house you can tell I take it to heart :P
Love this!
