I hope she keeps dancing...

I hope you never lose your sense of wonder,

You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger

May you never take one single breath for granted,

GOD forbid love ever leave you empty handed
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean,

Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens,

Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance,

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.

I hope you dance....I hope you dance...

I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance,

Never settle for the path of least resistance

Livin' might mean takin' chances, but they're worth takin',

Lovin' might be a mistake but it's worth makin',

Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter,

When you come close to sellin' out reconsider,

Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance,

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.

I hope you dance....I hope you dance.I hope you dance....I hope you dance.

Remember this song? I love the lyrics and now that I have little ones of my own, it has more meaning. I know that I owe my girls more time to play and/or just getting them out to play with others. But last weekends get together proves one true thing...no matter what, your children will thrive and learn to enjoy others. It's nice to see my Mer enjoying her friends and just dancing....and being a kid.
