Born to Rob and Donna Crider
Desiree arrived today
Family peeking through the window
As in the nursery she lay



She'll be pretty in lace and ruffles
She's her daddy's precious girl
Cooing and gurgling happily
A bright addition to the world



Tiny curls surround her face
A cherub mouth hints at a smile
A long-awaited bundle of joy
She's here to stay awhile



Kicking her feet and sucking her thumb
Bright eyes look around in awe
Dearly loved and oh, so welcome
Cutest baby you ever saw



Close your eyes, sweet little one
And God will watch over you
As the angels' voices from Heaven
Sing a lullaby just for you
