Those of you who know my musical taste probably wouldn't put Celine Dion at the top of the list. However, since school is starting in one week for Ryan and Abbey I thought I would post these two songs and here is why.
When Ryan was born, I remember driving up to the hospital and hearing A New Day by Celine Dion and couldn't believe she was singing my story. The words were exactly how I felt about my sweet little boy...tubes, wires, needles and all. A new day had come and I felt as though my world was complete. All of the heartache that was there before was washed away and I truly found strength in the eyes of a boy!
When Abbey was only a few months old she would wake up every morning like clock work at 4:00 am. Without fail when I would flip on the T.V. and feed her, the video I'm Alive by Celine Dion would come on everytime. When I listened to the words this is exactly what Abbey did for me. She woke me up and got me in touch with my inner girl. Pink became one of my favorite colors, not just in her clothing but mine. I was suddenly aware at how awesome it was to be a girl. We have so many more choices than boys. Not just in material stuff (althought that is fun) but the choices and paths we can take in life. It was pretty cool and probably one of my best "ah ha" moments. Thanks Abs!
I can't believe in such a few years they are heading off to school and no longer little babies. I can't wait to see what the future holds for the sweethearts.

Thats awesome. At least you can remember things, I was in such a funk/daze after having Kasi I'm sure I forgot to wear underwear let alone remember my surroundings. Time does fly by though.
