• "I Can't Wait"

  I have an hour before I have to nurse Naomi again and I intend to sleep for at least 45 minutes so this is a quickie. Just wanted to post this song by Sara Groves from her album Station Wagon. You can only order it on her website www.saragroves.com and she recorded it specially for parents.  The song captures best what I want for my daughter...especially the line..."and you'll teach me of hearts and dreams and all the most important things and all the things I've lost along the way."

  For those who have stopped by these past 3 weeks with your company and food, a very heartful thanks! Okay, off to catch some much need zzzzzzs!

  I Can't Wait

  When you reach the proper age

  I will teach you to read and you can turn the pages

  How to dress and tie your shoes

  Your one plus ones and your two times twos

  And you'll teach me of hearts and dreams

  And all the most important things

  And all that I have lost along the way

  And I can't wait

   

  As you grow I'll show you things

  How to ride your biek and kick your legs out on the swings

  To fold your hands and bow your head

  And say your prayers before you go to bed

  And you'll teach me of hearts and dreams

  And all the most important things

  And all that I have lost along the way

  And I can't wait

   

  How do you sleep so peacefully?

  How do you trust so unflinchingly?

  How do you love so faithfully?

  How do you dance so joyfully?
