Five

My baby is 5 years old today!!!

9:43 PM October 10, 2006

I used to listen to this song at 2 or 3 AM when I was up in the middle of the night nursing Luke.  VH1 played this video and that was all that was on.  I've always loved this song, and it makes me remember those peaceful times in his bedroom in our Atlanta house.  Watch the music video and read the lyrics.


Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol


We'll do it all
Everything
On our own

We don't need
Anything
Or anyone

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world?

I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel

Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden
That's bursting into life

Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads

I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden
That's bursting into life

All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes
They're all I can see

I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things
Will never change for us at all

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world?





There aren't that many pictures of me and Luke (because Mom is always taking the pictures!) but these are two of my most favorite of all time:




Happy Birthday to our beautiful boy!

The photo of you and Luke in the water is my very favorite - such pure happiness and joy on both of your faces is beautiful. Happy birthday to my wonderful grandson. I love you both very much.
