Today there is sickness, today there is war
Today there is hatred, there are hungry & poor
Today in the world we find bitterness & strife
But the glass is half-full, because today brings new life
Today you were sent by God, down from heaven above
To parents ready to share with you no lies, just love
You were conceived with purpose, with meaning, & care
That your joys & your struggles, with us you'd share
We're your Mom & your Dad, through our life now comes yours
May you take it on an adventure through stormy seas & new shores
Grab life with both hands & enjoy every moment you're here
Don't be afraid to fall down, to have questions & fear
Each hurdle & boundary overcome makes you strong
Today may you breath life to live healthy & long
Pretty in pink, my blue Skye came today
Into my arms where forever you'll stay
