Forever, forever, forever
So you're having my baby
And it means so much to me
There's nothing more precious
Than to raise a family
If there's any doubt in your mind
You can count on me
I'll never let you down
Lady believe in me
You and i
Will never fall apart
You and i
We knew right from the start, baby, baby
The day
We fell so far in love
Now our baby is born, healthy and strong
Now our dreams are reality...

One Month Later...
King Hopkins
I was awaken to Queen shaking me groaning in pain. I looked at the time 2:38 in the morning.
"Baby what's wrong?"
"He's coming." She said.
"What? Your three weeks early." I said jumping out the bed throwing on some jeans and my shoes. I helped Queen put on her clothes and shoes.
"I know, but he wants to come early." She said. I helped her out the front door.
My son coming early. I'm a little scared cause this both of our first child. I thought she would be screaming by now, but she not. She just breathing in and out, in and out.
I got her in the car right in time because she had another contraction. I rushed to the other side getting in. Shit I don't even remember locking the door.

10 Hours Later...
"Just one more push Queenie you can do it." The doctor said. She was sweating and squeezing my hand. She breathed deeply before pushing again.
"I'm never doing this again. Y'all gon' have to cut me next time." She said through gritted teeth.
"He's out." The doctor said. Hearing his cries for the first time brought tears to my eyes. I watched them take him out the room to get cleaned up.
"He is so handsome. I'm proud of you both. I'll be back soon, to check on you three. Be safe okay?"
"Okay thanks again for coming it means a lot."
"I wasn't going to miss this for anything in the world." The person said before walking out.
"How you feeling?" I asked Queen.
"Sore, but I'll manage." I wiped her forehead. I know she tired. A nurse walked in with our son wrapped in a blue blanket.
"Have you decided on a name yet?"
"I want to name Josiah Xavier Hopkins." Queen said. She nodded writing it down.
"I'll be back in a few. While I'm gone full this out and I'll do the rest." She said handing me a clipboard.
"Hand him to me." I got up to hand Josiah to her. He had her nose, but my lips, and ears. He was sleeping so I couldn't tell who eyes he had yet.
"King were actually parents now." Queen whispered.
"I know I still can't believe it." I said. Josiah was finally in the world. I look forward to his first words, crawling, growing teeth, learning how to walk, I don't want to miss anything.

One Week Later...
Queen " Queenie " Collins
Siah was only a week old and a handful. He only cries when he hungry, need to be changed, or want someone to pick him up. He not slick.
When King come around he get all happy and excited. He love his daddy.
Right now he laying on King chest looking all around being noisy. Lil head self.
"We should take family pictures since he here now."
"When and where?" I asked looking up from my tablet.
"We can go to the same place we took your pregnancy pictures and maybe next week." He said. I nodded.
"That's fine with me. We just need matching outfits." I said.
"We can handle all that next week. For now put that away its family time." He said. I swear he think he somebody daddy other then Siah's.
Having Siah here now is the best feeling ever. Just looking at him and King bond or King playing with him makes me smile. He got King wrapped around his little finger already. I just can't wait for him to start walking. Until then I want him to be a baby forever.
