I feel my dad when I hear this song and the easy, gentle way he has of pointing out how blessed I am to have the opportunities and experiences I'm having with my children.
I have two areas of focus this year. First, to be grateful. Second, to be present. This song is a wonderful reminder to be present and not miss the moments that are happening right now.
It's also for Jackie, and any other parent who wonders sometimes just how long these moments are going to last. Enjoy!

That was the perfect pick me up! LOVE that song. I think I will have to post the lyrics somewhere where I can see them everyday!
Thanks for thinking of me. Sniff, Sniff. Thanks for the tears too! There are moments that no matter what has happened, its all worth while because of one sweet moment.
I like that one too. Although I really can't picture your Dad listening to Trace.
I love this song too! I heard it the other day and tried to rededicate myself to enjoying more of the present moments and having less of the anxious anticipation of what life will bring next. It can be difficult to be present and mindful of all the things we experience and not get caught up with the whirlwind of thoughts going on in our head about what is coming up next. Anyway - great song!
Only in country music would you be able to hear such a song - so true
and uplifting and about the important things in life!! I have loved this song since hearing it in my car sitting in the school parking lot waiting on my son. I
get weepy with these kind of tunes.
The lyrics are great, but even more
so with the music behind them!
Just stopping by to catch up! It's been too long -I just am limited to
even minutes these days!! Your
baby is a Q.T. love the chins!haha
3 littles home with you is such a
blessing! I was never one to say "
I can't wait until she crawls, or talks or potty trained"..... I could wait!! I loved it!! Now my littles aren't so much (little)!!
(catch up with my new pix posted)
ciao, janae
