Give Me That Girl is a country song that I have loved for quite a while. I don't normally listen to country music unless my husband's around and I'm almost certain that it was his favorite song before mine. I bought it on iTunes and have listened to it for months but this morning something all of a sudden hit me. If you listen to the lyrics it's talking about wanting the normal every day moments. I have posted before about dressing for your husband and not allowing yourself as a homemaker to just live in PJ's but today this song stood out to me. My husband wants the normal every day girl too! He doesn't want me all dolled up every day (and thank goodness because I don't do it). One of my favorite lines today was "Give me that girl thats beautiful without a trace of make up on barefoot in the kitchen singin' her favorite song". Why? Well that exactly what I was doing! I had just got out of the shower and dressed and came down to cook breakfast. I turned on my ipod and that song came on and I was singing along! I haven't put on any makeup, done my hair, or have shoe's on yet. Although I completely agree with my other post about dressing for my husband I also see the need to just be comfortable and relaxed too. I'm so glad this song showed me that today! Although I'm getting dressed today (heading out to the zoo) I know that if there are days that I'm not dressed that those are just as important for both myself and for my husband!
Picture borrowed from Christian Film Database Another movie review! I was so thrilled when I was walking through Best Buy before Christmas and saw this DVD sitting on the shelf. If you are a boy mom like myself you know that they love super heroes. I struggle to find age appropriated super hero movies for Monkey to watch. He loves Spiderman, Batman, Iron Man, ect. and he has not seen any of the movies/shows that go along with them. Wait...he did watch The Avengers with Daddy one day while I was out. I haven't seen that one so I can't say what I think of it for a 3 year old. Anyway, I love Veggie Tale movies! I think that they do a good job of teaching lessons to kids in a way that they understand and I love the lessons they teach! This one is great because it is about fear and how if you trust God fear can't freeze you. If you have kids, especially boys this movie is great! It helps them get the superheros they want to watch without the bad guys th...
Great perspective. Have fun at the zoo!
