Our home is full of love, a little bit loud/ With three tiny humans who make us real proud/ We’re starting this chapter with joy (and some noise)/ And dreaming up comforts we’ll truly enjoy/ A couch for the chaos, a bed that feels right/ And maybe a fund for a not-so-bright night/ If you’d like to give in a thoughtful way/ A gift to our fund helps brighten the day/ No need for wrapping or bows on top/ Just a bit of support as we set up shop.
