Anyway.
Today, I was in my kitchen, dancing with my kids (because attempting to fold laundry and start dinner was useless, they wanted/needed/demanded my time & attention). The song "Blessed" by Martina McBride came on. There I am, in my beautiful kitchen, in my beautiful home with my beautiful children, singing and dancing and just loving life. And the song is so perfect.
I get kissed by the sun each morning
Put my feet on a hardwood floor
I get to hear my children laughing
Down the hall through the bedroom door
Sometimes I sit on my front porch swing
Just soaking up the day
I think to myself, I think to myself
This world is a beautiful place
I have been blessed
And I feel like I've found my way
I thank God for all I've been given
At the end of every day
I have been blessed
With so much more than I deserve
To be here with the ones that love me
To love them so much it hurts
I have been blessed
Across a crowded room
I know you know what I'm thinking
By the way I look at you
And when we're lying in the quiet
And no words have to be said
I think to myself, I think to myself
This love is a beautiful gift
Repeat Chorus
When I'm singing my kids to sleep
When I feel you holding me
I know
Repeat Chorus

Oooh, you lost me here. For the most part, I can't stand country music. There are a few songs that Dennis has made me listen to often enough that I don't mind them as much now, but as a rule, not for me. Now I REALLY know you're gonna love The Big E - it's mostly country music!
Those lyrics sound beautiful, though, so I may have to give that song a listen.
Personally, I was a Jessica Simpson fan (saw her at The Big E a few years ago!) until she screwed over Nick Lachey. I totally took his side.
