...in love...

Do you remember what it was like when you fell in love with your spouse? How you could never quite verbalize the feeling of how much love you had for that one person?

Well, it's like that feeling all over again but now there's 2 men in my life that i am madly in love with, and somehow i still can't find the words to describe it!

I am such a sucker for these two! I think of how much they look like eachother, and how i can't wait until I can hear Kaleb say 'daddy' and get to see him copy his dad and watch them become best buddies. I am so thankful Jared is the man my son will pattern his life after!

I was on my way home from work the other day and this song came on the radio, which turned me into a ball of tears and blissful gratitude for my boys :)

'I've Been Watching You Dad'

Driving through town just my boy and me

with a happy meal in his booster seat
knowing that he couldn't have the toy

till his nuggets were gone

Green traffic light turned straight to red

I hit my breaks and mumbled under my breath

as fries went a flying and his orange drink covered his lap

well then my four year old said a four letter work

that started with "s" and i was concerned

so i said son, now where'd you learn to talk like that

He said I've been watching you dad, ain't that cool

I'm your buckaroo, I wanna be like you

and eat all my food and grow as tall as you are

We got cowboy boots and camo pants

yeah we're just alike, hey aint we dad

I wanna do everything you do

so i've been watching you

We got back home and I went to the barn

I bowed my head and prayed real hard

said Lord please help me help my stupid self

Then this side of bedtime later that night

turning on my son's Scooby Doo nightlight

He crawled out of bed and he got down on his kneed

He closed his little eyes, folded his little hands

and spoke to God like he was talking to a friend

and I said son, where'd you learn to pray like that

He said I've been watching you dad, ain't that cool

I'm your buckaroo, I wanna be like you

and eat all my food and grow as tall as you are

We like fixing things and holding Mama's hand

Yeah we're just alike, hey ain't we dad

I wanna do everything you do

So i've been watching you

With tears in my eyes I wrapped him in a hug

Said my little bear is growing up

He said but when i'm big I'll still know what to do

Cause I've been watching you dad, ain't that cool

I'm your buckaroo, I wanna be like you

and eat all my food and grow as tall as you are

Then I'll be strong as you and Superman

We'll be just alike, hey won't we dad

When I can do everything you do

Cause I've been watching you
