ONE HEARTBEAT AT A TIME

I wanted to share this song with everyone today. It's a song Steven Curtis Chapman wrote for his wife. It's so moving and beautiful and I feel like it sums up my life. Especially today, while I'm rocking my feverish baby.....

You're up all night with a screaming baby

You run all day at the speed of life

And every day you feel a little bit less

Like the beautiful woman you are.

So you fall in bed when you run out of hours

And you wonder if anything worth doing got done

Well maybe you just don't know

Or maybe you've forgotten

That you, you are changing the world

One little heartbeat at a time

Making history with every touch and every smile

Oh you, you may not see it now

But I believe that time will tell

How you, you are changing the world

One little heartbeat at a time.

With every "I know you can do it"

And every tear that you kiss away

So many little things that seem to go unnoticed

They're just like the drops of rain

Over time, they become a river

You're beautiful, so beautiful

How you're changing the world, yeah you're changing the world

I believe that you, you are changing the world

ONE LITTLE HEARTBEAT AT A TIME!

To all of us moms out there who feel like we can never see the day to day accomplishments, we ARE changing the world. We are building great cathedrals (thanks Karen), we just can't see them yet.
