A LITTLE ABOUT LIFE'S SURPRISES.
Six pounds,
thirteen ounces weighed Vega,
the day we had our son.
You were in pain,
I was having fun!

You took it like a champ,
you didn't scream and shout.
Even after seeing the stretch marks,
I still didn't see you pout.

Then we had Shai,
a couple of years later.
I can already tell I'm going to hate,
every guy trying to date her!

To them I'll be rude,
to them I'll be mean.
But my daughter won't end up,
another pregnant teen.

Now here I am,
two kids and a wife,
everything is great,
I have a wonderful life.

Knock, Knock on the door,
who could it be?
It's my daughter Isis,
happy birthday to me.

Vega was born on my moms birthday,
Isis was born on mine!
Shai was due on valentines day,
but she was stubborned and did not comply.

Now I have my family setting,
MY wife, My house, My kids.
It's all because Jacquelyn's love,
is the truest there's ever been!
