May her dreams stay big

Yesterday KK was promoted at preschool from the 3 year old class to the 4 year old class. If the heavens opened and dropped the perfect preschool into our lap, it would be the one we have found for KK. We are blessed to have found a school where there is no doubt that the teachers and staff truly love each of the children. Thank you for a wonderful year, Ms. Joanna, Ms. Alisa, and Ms. Michelle! KK loves you!!!!
At the end of the promotion ceremony they played a video of the kids asking each of them what they wanted to be when they grow up. KK's answer: "I want to be a puppy and a horse. And a kitty too!" "Why?" "Because I want to be those aminals!" They showed a million precious photos from the school year to the songs "My Wish" by Rascal Flatts and "Let Them Be Little" by Lonestar. The words couldn't be more perfect.

I hope the days come easy and the moments pass slow,
and each road leads you where you want to go,
and if you're faced with a choice, and you have to choose,
I hope you choose the one that means the most to you.
And if one door opens to another door closed,
I hope you keep on walkin' 'til you find the window,
if it's cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile,
But more than anything, more than anything...

My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
your dreams stay big, your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
and while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah this, is my wish.

I hope you never look back, but you never forget,
all the ones who love you, in the place you left,
I hope you always forgive, and you never regret,
and you help somebody every chance you get.
Oh, you find God's grace, in every mistake,
and you always give more then you take.
But more than anything, Yeah, and more than anything...

My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
and while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah this, is my wish.

So let them be little,
'Cause they're only that way for a while.
Give them hope, give 'em praise,
Give them love every day.
Let 'em cry, let 'em giggle,
Let them sleep in the middle,
Oh, but let them be little.


We also have a birthday to celebrate today! Happy birthday Joe, we love you!!!! (You'll always be little to me! xoxo)

I've never heard of either song (or the bands) but the words are perfect. Can't believe baby girl isn't a baby anymore.

Can't wait to see you!
