One

One sleepy Mama takes pause to remember
One precious boy
who has doubled joy
and brought peace into
already life full.
One year makes way for another -
every day grace.
Simple coo turns smile turns laughter
turns gut-wrenching, belly-rolling
on the floor intertwined with sister
who is as proud as Mama.
Roll into crawl into wobble - now
One step after another.
One big blur from then 'till now, and in
One moment you are no longer rocking, swaddling babe,
but tumbling toddler.
We all smile at
One life that makes all richer.
