Girl or Boy?

You don't recall that time gone by
when noise filled up your home each day?
an army assault course greeted your eye
opening their bedroom to tidy each day

You don't remember the sullen stare
of never knowing what to say.
walking on eggshells to show that you care
still getting it wrong when they stomp away

Oh Pat, you really are truly blessed
if those nightmare days didn't happen to you
your offspring must be one of the best
if you can say that you haven't a clue

I guess the answer just has to be
it was a girl for you and a boy for me
