Remembering: 5 years ago

This week we celebrate our daughter’s fifth birthday. That puts me in kind of an emotional mood, as I think of how quickly she is growing up. She has been a tremendous blessing to our lives.

I remember back approximately 5 years ago, when I heard this song debuted by George Strait on WSM Radio. It was just a few months before Presleigh was born. I was driving outside of Columbia, Tennessee, on my way to see a client in that area. The words of the first verse were intriguing to me, but the twist in the second verse and the chorus really got to me. They seemed to describe exactly where I was at that point in my life – anxiously expecting the birth of our first precious child.

That song has remained so special to me, and it always takes me back to exactly where I first heard the song. “The song remembers when”, as they say.

Happy birthday Angel! Mommy and Daddy love you so very much!! You’re truly a blessing from God.
