Ok, before the sweet moments I have been having with a certain song lately...I must share that MY HANDWRITING was turned into a font! I have an obsession with handwriting and have always wanted mine to be a font and found this BLOG with a girl who does JUST THAT! Want to download my font? Go HERE and download it for free (Pea Terri Cherie)...and while you are at it - tell a friend about my blog and become a follower :).
So...I have a thing for Taylor Swift. You either love her or hate her. I love her. She has a song calle, "The Best Day" that she wrote about her mom. Read the lyrics - then google, and listen to it. Special, huh?
The part of the song I have bolded is what is so meaningful to me. There was a time that I cried and cried when my mom would come get me from school or that I would drive myself home and cry after cheer practice. I just was so sensitive and didn't feel accepted for what I believed in at times. My mom was always there and she tells me now that as a mom, seeing my hurt like that was so horrible. But she made it all better.
Even though I have a boy - I hope to be the mom he can come running to for anything and will try and make everyday a "Best Day".
I'm five years old and it's getting cold
I've got my big coat on
I hear your laugh and look up smiling at you
I run and run
Past the pumpkin patch and the tractor rides
Look now the sky is gold
I hug your legs and fall asleep on the way home
I don't know why all the trees change in the fall
I know you're not scared of anything at all
Don't know if Snow White's house is near or far away
But I know I had the best day with you today
I'm thirteen now and don't know how my friends could be so mean
I come home crying and you hold me tight and grab the keys
And we drive and drive until we found a town far enough away
And we talk and window shop till I forgot all their names
I don't know who I'm gonna talk to now at school
But I know I'm laughing on the car ride home with you
Don't know how long it's gonna take to feel okay
But I know I had the best day with you today
I have an excellent father
His strength is making me stronger
God smiles on my little brother
Inside and out he's better than I am
I grew up in a pretty house and I had space to run
And I had the best days with you
There is a video I found from back when I was three
You set up a paint set in the kitchen and you're talking to me
It's the age of princesses and pirate ships and the seven dwarfs
Daddy's smart and you're the prettiest lady in the whole wide world
Now I know why all the trees change in the fall
I know you were on my side even when I was wrong
And I love you for giving me your eyes
Staying back and watching me shine and I didn't know if you knew
So I'm taking this chance to say that I had the best day with you today
I've got my big coat on
I hear your laugh and look up smiling at you
I run and run
Past the pumpkin patch and the tractor rides
Look now the sky is gold
I hug your legs and fall asleep on the way home
I don't know why all the trees change in the fall
I know you're not scared of anything at all
Don't know if Snow White's house is near or far away
But I know I had the best day with you today
I'm thirteen now and don't know how my friends could be so mean
I come home crying and you hold me tight and grab the keys
And we drive and drive until we found a town far enough away
And we talk and window shop till I forgot all their names
I don't know who I'm gonna talk to now at school
But I know I'm laughing on the car ride home with you
Don't know how long it's gonna take to feel okay
But I know I had the best day with you today
I have an excellent father
His strength is making me stronger
God smiles on my little brother
Inside and out he's better than I am
