Grocery Carts, Strollers and Lyrics

As I am making lunch for the doodles today I see Ella zoom by... pushing Logan in the doll stroller !! Then they decided he should go in their shopping cart and take a spin. They took turns back and forth for about 15 minutes and had me cracking up the entire time!!

My new favorite song that has kept me sane when things are getting tough around here. Thanks Hootie!

It Won't Be Like This For Long

By Darius Rucker

He didn't have to wake up

He'd been up all night

Lying there in bed and listening

To his newborn baby cry

He makes a pot of coffee

He splashes water on his face

His wife gives him a kiss and says,

"It's gonna be okay"

It won't be like this for long

One day we'll look back laughing

At the week we brought her home

This phase is gonna fly by

So baby, just hold on

It won't be like this for long

Four years later, 'bout 4:30

She's crawling in their bed

And when he drops her off at pre-school

She's clinging to his leg

The teacher peels her off of him

He says, "What can I do?

She says, "Now, don't you worry

This'll only last a week or two"

It won't be like this for long

One day soon you'll drop her off

And she won't even know you're gon

This phase is gonna fly by

If you can just hold on

It won't be like this for long

Someday soon she'll be a teenager

And at times, he'll think she hates him

And he'll walk her down the aisle
And raise her veil,

But right now she's up and cryin'
And the truth is that he don't mind

As he kisses her goodnight

And she says her prayers

He lays down there beside her

Till her eyes are finally closed
And just watching her it breaks his heart
'Cause he already knows

It won't be like this for long

One day soon that little girl is gonna be
All grown up and gone

And this phase is gonna fly by

So he's trying to hold on

It won't be like this for long

It won't be like this for long
