Two Peas in a Pod

One of my customers, Jim Munroe from AMEA, has a side business writing whimsical poems (rhymes4life.com). He writes them to commemorate big events in people's lives.  Unbeknownst to me, he wrote one for the births of Carter and Olivia.  Below is the picture of what he sent me, but I've also typed out the poem as it's hard to read from the picture.  I teared up when I read it. 

Two Peas in a Pod

The girl was born in Texas, she's a Longhorn thru and thru,
the boy in North Carolina, then led the College Station crew.

The girl had just turned twenty five, a group went out that night,
the boy was there beside her, he waited 'til the time was right.

One year later they were married and the two became as one,
they love to travel, love to cruise and take ski trips just for fun.

Then in two thousand eleven, it was in October of that year,
there was a joyous celebration, two new reasons for a cheer.

It was on the ninth and she came first, five ten at night they claim,
four pounds and seven ounces and Olivia is her name.

Then he came next, five twenty one, ladies first they always say,
five pounds and five more ounces and then Carter was displayed.

Her length was fifteen inches, he was two and one half more,
she might grow to be a Longhorn, he might grow to join the Corp.

We don't know about the future, we don't know what lies ahead,
so for now just hold those babies, tuck them in their little beds.
Watch them grow each day, make every moment last,
for time goes by so quickly, oh it happens all too fast.

May God bless her and God bless him, may the angels watch above,
two little peas inside a pod, surrounded by unending love.
