This is our home now Teddy
It's really really home!
Are we over the rainbow
Is all of this really happening
This just has to be as it seems
Oh Teddy please .... It HAS to be
Or ....
Are we like Dorothy
In the land of Oz
Will we wake up
To find all this only
A beautiful dream
A yellow brick road to smiles
Do you know
How good that seems
No more secrets
I have to swear not to tell
No more silent screams
Just look Teddy
How beautiful home is inside
Not even once today was I told
If you touch ... I'll tan your hide!
My new Mommy
Combed my hair real pretty
And then she said to me
Jennel
You are the prettiest angel
That I have ever seen
Me Teddy? ... Me!
Then she HUGGED me REAL big
Mom told me
That Mommy
Can't find us here
I could never understand
Why Mom would grab
And pull my hair
I tried to be a real good girl
Cause I was always so askared
But no matter how hard I tried
I was always a bad girl there
If I did not do exactly what Mommy said
She threatened me
With tearing off your head!
Teddy I was glad
To take the beatings
To keep you safe in our bed
You have always been right here by me
Your fur wet from falling tears
I can't remember a day I haven't cried
Except for the day we've just spent here
And now ...
You will share with me the bestest smiles
That our angels have found a way
To make for us come alive
Dad won't be paying any more visits
in the quiet of the night
No more listening for his footsteps
No more guilty feelings
Of no matter what Dad says
There is something that is not right
A new Mommy and Daddy
Hugs and kisses all around!
Just as it was promised
We who were lost in fear
Have now been found
No ... Teddy
We have found our rainbow
I just know it
My heart feels so different now!
Jennel I told you only a minute
Better come inside now sweetie
Mommy has made some hot chocolate
and before you go to bed we just got
to top it off with lots and lots
of marshmallows!
What's hot chocolate?
(Oh my precious baby ... my precious baby)
My lap is still waiting for my favorite girl
And you still need to pick your story to be read
Your bed is waiting for your first night home
To rest your pretty head
Better get your sleep Princess
Cause when the morning comes
Grandma will be paying a visit
She just can't wait to get her first hugs
Not one more second precious little one
It will be another very busy day
You got to rest up for some more fun
Come on now scamp
Your holding up progress
Its time for
Our goodnight prayers to be sung
Oh my Teddy
I think Jennel's feet
Are stuck to the grass
Yep they're not moving
Pick em up and put em down little one
Or the tickle bug will get you
Oops here he comes now!!!!!!
Beyond this picture
There is a little girl just like me
Waiting to step out of her bad dream too
I sure hope she finds her way
Cause this feels oh so nice
Coming Daddy . . . .
(Giggle)
Oh Daddy
I'm coming!
This little girl has found her way
To step beyond her picture
Into a beautiful new life
Won't you help another little one
To find their way?
