Daddy of Triplets
A miraculous day it was when three healthy babies arrivedBut soon our parents were both very sleep deprived
A stronger man you’ll never meet
When we turned four months old
Our dad took a new job that was very bold
A stay at home dad he became
A job which doesn’t have a lot of fame
Our crying and screaming gave headaches galore
And yet he stuck around every day for more
Our smiles and giggles became his pay
And he quickly began enjoying each new day
All times three for Heaven’s sake
Clothes to wash, high chairs to cleanKeeping Cuddles from being mean
Stack some cups really high
Hold each girl up and pretend she flies
Sing a song, play patty-cake
Pretend the plastic food isn’t fake
Dad is tired, but there is still time for fun
Hey I know, let’s all go for a run
So many duties for one man to do
I hope he can catch a nap or two
His devotion to each of us is so unique
And for his attention we all do seek
If we could speak we would say
You’re the best dad in every way
Ok, crying after reading that :( Amazing poem and wonderful tribute to Scott! Thanks for sharing it!
