I was outside swinging on the long wooden chair. Stef went to give Braylon and Nyla their baths, mom came out and sat down next to me
And started talking. I remember the Day when we first brought you home
You didn't talk to us for months
Until you begin speaking, you had the most sweetest voice l ever heard
The day we were all in the judges chambers. Your dad and I had just signed the adoption papers, you said you wanted to keep your last name
