Blessed

Along with updating some photos of Benjamin, we would like to share memories as they come to us and also post current events in our lives. One late evening in the early weeks, we had the radio on and were cuddling with Benjamin in an attempt to get him to sleep when the song "Blessed" by Elton John came on. Ever since then, I have chosen this song for him.

Hey you, you're a child in my head/You haven't walked yet/Your first words have yet to be said/But I swear you'll be blessed/I know you're still just a dream/your eyes might be green/Or the bluest that I've ever seen/Anyway you'll be blessed/And you, you'll be blessed/You'll have the best/I promise you that/I'll pick a star from the sky/Pull your name from a hat/I promise you that, promise you that, promise you that/You'll be blessed/I need you before I'm too old/To have and to hold/To walk with you and watch you grow/And know that you're blessed
