Life can be full of unexpected joys
I'm thinking of you now
One little girl and two little boys

You were brought suddenly into our world
When our daughter fell in love with your Daddy
Now in our hearts you'll forever be safely curled

I had no idea I could love you so
For your hugs, smiles and kisses I live
But that you already know

My heart aches when we're apart
I long to see your faces
Your voices on the telephone brings delight into my heart

It's been truly amazing to watch you grow
In just these past few years
The change you've made in my life only G-d can know

There is a word I long to hear
Perhaps one day you'll say it
Oh....to hear you call me Grandma, my dears

Life can be full of such unexpected joys
Yes....I mean the three of you
One little girl and two little boys
