Baby Girl

Now that we are in full nursery mode (more on that later) I have ideas flowing out of my dome.  One thing I definitely want to incorporate is the song 'Baby Girl' by Will Hoge.  It is the song that my dad and I danced to at Jason and my wedding and since we're having our own baby girl, I think it is appropriate.  This song brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it.  It is exactly what any parent could want for a child and certainly what I want for my little baby girl.

May the sunlight find your face

Even when the rain does fall

And get back on your feet again

Every time you slip and fall

Keep your heart wide open

And always taking in

And even when it's broken

Be strong enough to fix it up again

Oh little baby girl

Sweet little baby girl

I wish I could hold your hand in this great big world

Oh little baby girl

And I hope your hands are steady

And never need to make a fist

And I hope that when you're ready

You get one never ending kiss

And I hope that deep inside of you

There's a sweet eternal song

And I hope the words are pretty

And that you'll always sing along

And I hope your friends are many

And your laughter's always loud

To help you when you're lonely

And pick you up when you're down

I hope your eyes shine bright love

And learn to see the light

Take the time to listen

Decide yourself what's wrong or right

Oh little baby girl

Sweet little baby girl

Be strong in this great big world

Oh little baby girl
