525,600 Minutes
It’s been one year. One year since my life completely changed, for good…and for the better. It hasn’t always been easy. But it has been more than worth it. It has been the best 525,600 minutes of my life. And I look forward to the next 525,600 minutes. If you’re familiar with the song Seasons of Love from Rent I think you’ll appreciate my version of the song:
five hundred twenty-five thousandTruly my year has been one season of love after another. And there’s no way to measure or contain all the love and joy I have found.
six hundred minutes
five hundred twenty-five thousand
moments so dear
five hundred twenty-five thousand
six hundred minutes
how do you measure- measure a year?
in daylights, in sunsets
in midnights, in dirty diapers
in inches, in miles
in laughter, in strife
in- five hundred twenty-five thousand
six hundred minutes
how do you measure
a year in the life?
how about love?
how about love?
how about love?
measure in love
seasons of love
seasons of love
five hundred twenty-five thousand
six hundred minutes
five hundred twenty-five thousand
tantrums to calm
five hundred twenty-five thousand
six hundred minutes
how do you measure the life
of a daughter or a mom?
in that first story book
or in times that she cried
in the first steps she took
that filled you with pride
it's time now- to sing out
it's Lucy's first birthday
lets celebrate
remember the year and shout "hooray!"
remember the love
remember the love
remember the love
measure in love
measure, measure your life in love
seasons of love...
seasons of love
Happy birthday Lucy. I love you.
Love, Mama

You know the signs in the zoo that say "do not feed the animals"? Yeah, well...consider this a sign saying "PLEASE feed the author's ego!" I love comments, LOTS and LOTS of comments! ;)
