A time of happiness a time of joy,
A time of wondering is it a girl or boy.
Could there be two or even three,
So I had a sonar just to see.
For eight long years we did try,
and now he's here I feel I could cry.
Our pride and joy I'm sure he will be,
Our son Henrich for my Husband and me.
Life in Upington can at times be tough,
But whatever it takes can we do enough.
All the weeks of pregnancy never a chore,
This is the first there could be more.
For our Son we want to do our best,
But we have no time to take a rest.
For there is but a month to go,
Before he is the star of the show.
His room is ready as is his bed,
All ready for him to rest his head.
All we want is health and joy,
For Henrich our first little boy.
