Before these walls were blue...

The world says you're ready when you're eighteen
Well I was no exception to the rule.
Eager to try my hand at proving that I was a man
Not an ounce of fear in anything I do.

Yeah I thought I knew it all
Turns out I didn't have a clue
Before these walls were blue.

Well I remember sitting there in that old rocker
Reading, trying to get you back to sleep.
Well I'd find myself, laughing at you laughin'
Wishing the hands of time that I could cheat

Yeah I thought that I knew love
Turns out I didn't have a clue
Before these walls were blue.

I believe in heaven, I believe in magic
I believe in the life inside these walls.
Now I believe
In dinosaurs and toy trains and baseball
What are you gonna be for Halloween?
I'll be the villain, and you be the hero
You save the day the way that you saved me

Yeah I thought I knew myself,
Turns out I didn't have a clue
Before these walls were blue.

If anyone knows Kam and I - they know that Wade Bowen has always been one of our favorite musicians. When we were first dating, we went to every possible performance. Our first dance as a married couple was to "Who I Am" and now 5 years later, as I listen to my son play, another Wade Bowen song perfectly captures our lives. 

I listen to this song and I cry happy tears. I think of my sweet boy when he was brand new with his sweet chubby cheeks and his soft cry. Then I see this wild little boy ramming trucks together and "shooting birds" and my heart just bursts with happiness. I couldn't have ever imagined the love, the laughs and the complete crazy/hectic/wonderful life being a mom really is.  

My Kye boy will be 2 years old in a week.  And I really didn't have a clue before he was in my life.  I look forward to all the ups and downs that are in our future with this crazy little man! 

Peace, Love & baby Boys,
