Picking the music out for Amanda's wedding was so fun..but there were too many good songs to choose from. I wanted to share some of the best ones with you guys. Over the next few days I'll post some of the "also rans"... (because of bandwidth restrictions, I will post one a day, and delete the one from the previous day).

This one, "Blessed" by Elton John rings true for every parent. Before the child is even born, you promise them the best...


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
