Here's to all the baby boys out there.
Edited on Mon Mar-31-08 11:53 PM by Swede
And their moms.

Christopher robin and I walked along
Under branches lit up by the moon
Posing our questions to owl and eeyore
As our days disappeared all too soon
But Ive wandered much further today than I should
And I cant seem to find my way back to the wood

So help me if you can
Ive got to get back
To the house at pooh corner by one
Youd be surprised
Theres so much to be done
Count all the bees in the hive
Chase all the clouds from the sky
Back to the days of christopher robin and pooh

Winnie the pooh doesnt know what to do
Got a honey jar stuck on his nose
He came to me asking help and advice
And from here no one knows where he goes
So I sent him to ask of the owl if hes there
How to loosen a jar from the nose of a bear

Its hard to explain how a few precious things
Seem to follow throughout all our lives
After alls said and done I was watching my son
Sleeping there with my bear by his side
So I tucked him in, I kissed him and as I was going
I swear that the old bear whispered boy welcome home

Believe me if you can
Ive finally come back
To the house at pooh corner by one
What do you know
Theres so much to be done
Count all the bees in the hive
Chase all the clouds from the sky
Back to the days of christopher robin
Back to the ways of christopher robin
Back to the days of pooh

1. To all the beautiful baby boys, my dear Swede...
They enliven our days...

They illuminate our nights...

We walk with them

And know how much they mean

To all of us lucky ones

How much we love them...


Thank you for this beautiful post...:hug:

2. What a sweet video. .. A gentle song for a gentle thread...Once I was a beloved baby boy....
First child of young parents, first real grandchild on either side-I was truly the "fortunate son".
