````See my baby brother
`````Sitting in mamma's lap;
````He's just getting ready
````To take a little nap.=
````But before to dreamland
`````My baby brother goes,
````I want to count his fingers,
`````And see his chubby toes.=
````Mamma, can't you make him
`````Just talk and laugh again,
````So we can find the dimples
`````In his sweet cheeks and chin?=
````His eyes shine like diamonds
`````When he looks up so glad.
````O, he's the dearest brother
`````A sister ever had.=
[Illustration: 0045]
````Now he talks a little,
`````And laughs, come quick,
`````and see
````My baby brother's dimples,
`````As cunning as can be.=
````The angels love our baby,
`````He is so very fair;
````And so they came and kissed
`````him,
````And left the dimples there.=
