Daddy’s Wish for KateLin
Well, baby-girl it is hard for me to say or express my deep love for you, your siblings and your mother. I am truly not very good at this. I do realize that is not a reason not to attempt to express myself. So, here goes. This habit that I have of using song lyrics dates back to when your mom and I started dating back in late 1988 early 1989. This is a song by Rascal Flatts, a country music band that your mom and I like. Anyway, here’s “My Wish for You”
Lyrics:
I hope that days come easy and moments pass slow,
And each road leads you where you want to go,
And if you're faced with a choice, and you have to choose,
I hope you choose the one that means the most to you.
And if one door opens to another door closed,
I hope you keep on walkin' till you find the window,
If it's cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile,
More then anything, more then anything,
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it,
To your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more then you can hold,
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.
I hope you never look back, but ya never forget,
All the ones who love you, in the place you left,
I hope you always forgive, and you never regret,
And you help somebody every chance you get,
Oh, you find God's grace, in every mistake,
And you always give more then you take.
Oh More then anything, Yeah, and more then anything,
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it,
To your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more then you can hold,
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.
Always, always, ALWAYS remember that you were born in our hearts and we have loved since the very first. You have been and will FOREVER be a “Wallace”. If anyone tells you different… you tell them to come see me.
May you come to know Jesus and have that close personal relationship with Him. That is my primary wish for you. If that happens…He WILL handle the rest.
God’s Grace, Peace, Mercy and Love to you my baby-girl.
Love ya,
Daddy
