I remember having such an overwhelming love for our first born. I now love her even more. Before our second was born I worried, how can I love the same way again? Then our third came. What happened is my heart grew huge with love for each one. I can no longer love one, although I love each one with all I have. I can no longer love one, live for one, die for one, for now I love three.

This is a song I wrote in 10mns. just this morning while I was playing with little David (17 moths) and I was missing our other two, who are with gramma and granpa. It all just hit me and here it is.

To all you parents of one, two, three, whatever, wondering how to love more than you already do. To those expecting their first, or second or more, when you wonder what how to love more than one.

In Spanish. The google translation (not great), follows:

Ahora Quiero A Tres

Verso 1

No puede querer a uno

Porque ahora tengo tres

Cuando solo tenia uno, queria a uno

Pero ahora tengo tres

Coro

Mi Corazon es solo tuyo

Y de ustedes a la misma vez

No puedo querer a uno

Porque ahora quiero a tres

Verso2

A Canela y a Isabela

Hijas nuestras, bellas son

Y a David el hombrecito

Apasionada extension

Bridge

Cuando joven yo decia

Como sera sentir tan gran amor

Por mas que a este uno

Como amar con mas passion?

Mi corazon se a engrandecido

Con tal facilidad

Al ver a estas tres criaturas

De Jesus con gran ternura

Son ustedes, hijos, mi felicidad
