The time has come you see,
you have spent nine months with me.
We had a rough beginning, a little touch and go.
But you would make it fine, once you started to grow.
So many people love you so very much.
I couldn't wait for the moment you felt mommy's touch
No, my little darling, that is not me.
I carried you for another and someday you will see.
I look in your sweet and oh so beautiful face,
and everything freezes, this time and place.
As I slowly hand you over to your loving mom and dad,
my heart is filled with happiness,
but my eyes are kind of sad.
For nine long months I've had you near my heart,
and it makes me sort of sad that we finally have to part.
But the sparkle that I see in your parent's eyes
and the joy that I hear in their happy cries,
makes this ever so easy and so right.
I have a feeling angels will sleep with you tonight

Our friendship started differently,
Than most friendships I've had.
We had to search each other out,
because of something sad.
A precious child to fill your hearts,
Is what you're longing for.
Infertility has made it hard,
to open up that door.
And so a search began for you,
to find a helping heart.
So similar to my own search,
not knowing where to start.
For me, the search is special,
it requires such great care.
A couple to have a child...
the fruit my search must bare.
Now we've found each other,
so much more real it seems.
Through faith and hope and honesty,
we're moving toward your dream.
But the dream we have, it is the same,
a dream that's filled with firsts.
First smiles, first laughs, first steps, first words..
All starting with a birth.
Often times I find myself
wondering what it's like,
to have to trust a stranger
with such a precious life.
And though I can't imagine,
all that you've been through,
I hope you know I'll do my best
to bring a child to you.
Surrogacy is something
not everyone can do.
But I've been so blessed in my life,
I'm drawn to helping you.
Some people call us Angels,
us surro-moms to be.
But I don't feel angelic,
I just feel like me.
Our journey is just starting,
and no one knows the end.
I pray it brings to you a child,
and brings to me a friend.
