Big Big Dreams

My last two kids, at their Kindergarten graduation have or are going to sing this song called Big Dreams.  I cry every time I hear it.   A couple of days ago, Cowboy picked up Little Mister and took him outside and all the suddne I hear this sweet little 6 year old voice singing this song to his baby brother…

Big Dreams - By Teresa Jennings
Just because I'm shorter
than a grown-up.
Just because I'm young, I'm not afraid.

It's true I might not
know the best way to go
But I have big, big
dreams!

Big, Big Dreams ,Lots of big dreams Things I wanna do someday.

Big, big dreams, Lots of big dreams Big dreams are okay!

Just because I haven't
been around long.
just because I don't know lots of stuff.

I have a lot to say, I
try everyday
Cause I have big, big dreams!

Big, Big Dreams, Lots of big dreams, Things I wanna do someday.

Big, big dreams, Lots of big dreams Big dreams are okay!

Yup I was crying, and my husband was laughing at me.  I’m going to be a mess at kindergarten graduation, but I bet I will be a bigger mess at high school graduation, or when they go on their missions. I just hate that they are all growing up so so fast. Is there anyway we could slow it down!?!

It was just so sweet to watch him holding, or at least hanging on to, my baby and singing him a song about getting big.  One day these little ones are going to be big, and they are going to achieve those “Big Big Dreams”.  They are going to be amazing.

That's such a sweet song-I'm sure I would be cyring too! I try not to think too much of my kids getting older. I see you have rock landscape too. (Not my favorite thing...).

What a sweet brother moment! I just wish we could fast forward through the mess making stages and slow down on the rest...

They all just grow up so fast! We graduated two of our daughters over the last couple of weeks. Seems like yesterday we were at their kindergarten graduations.
