As I was cooking dinner one night during my maternity leave I had Reba on the t.v. I had seen this particular episode before - it was the one where Reba's daughter has her baby. At the end Reba sings a lullaby to her new granddaughter. The song had me crying even before I was even pregnant and this time I almost lost it. I remember texting Candy (my sister-in-law) who was also on maternity leave because she had talked about this song before too, and then grabbing the video camera. I know it's cheesy, but I just wanted to tape her sleeping while the song was playing, so I paused the DVR and cued it up when I had the camera ready. I honestly forgot about this video, but came across it as I uploaded pictures tonight. I started crying again watching it. I cannot believe how much time has already passed and how big she is already!! Time needs to slow down!!!
**And please excuse the goofy sound at the end - I didn't get the camera turned off in time to miss the commercial. Kinda ruins the mood! ** :)
Here are the lyrics as well:
Angel's Lullaby
Midnight moonlight shining through the curtain lace
Paints a perfect picture on your perfect face
One sweet angel sleeping in my arms
You are the promise I knew God would keep
You are the gift that makes my world complete
And you'll never know how much I love you
But I'll keep on telling you my whole life through
Now I believe in miracles, and you're the reason why
So dream on while I sing you my angel's lullaby.
