Before you were a tiny treasure
In your Mommy’s womb
You were a dream moved by a prayer
That you would be here soon
This dream came not from emptiness,
This prayer came not from need
For our lives were full, our hearts content,
Our happiness complete
We knew if we could find such joy
In what our God had given
That adding you to our family
Would be one more step toward heaven
So when your Mommy and your Daddy
Announced their cherished treasure
The love and joy that filled our hearts
Were gifts beyond all measure
So grow, our little Scarlett
Be strong and fight your fight
For soon you will be with us all
When you shall come to light
A whole world still awaits you
A life for you to start
Until we hold you in our arms,
We’ll hold you in our hearts
