Word to Ya Mother- Part I

I know what you're thinking. A Vanilla Ice post? How fun! 

But- that's not what this is all about. 

Also? I'm not writing about mothers, either. 

Which leaves only a couple of options. Rap songs? Or words?

If you guessed words, then you're right. Words are so important. They lift you up, bring you down, boost your confidence, hurt your feelings. The most important things in the world are conveyed through words: 

"I love you."

"I'm pregnant!"

"Will you marry me?"

"You got the job!"

I started blogging after I got married to my Mr. and I wish that I had started my blog before so that I could have written about all the little details. Most of what we planned our wedding around had to with songs, poems, and quotes that mean something to the two of us. And since I can still remember most of these details, I figured that this is the perfect opportunity to begin staring some of them. My plan is that every so often I will share words from our wedding. These words will be from songs, our vows, the readings, notes from the cards we received from people we love, and maybe even some of the toasts. I'm super excited to get this started, so here goes nothing.

Bruno Mars: "Count on Me"

If you ever find yourself stuck in the middle of the seaI'll sail the world to find youIf you ever find yourself lost in the dark and you can't seeI'll be the light to guide you

We find out what we're made ofWhen we are called to help our friends in need

You can count on me like one, two, three, I'll be thereAnd I know when I need itI can count on you like four, three, two, and you'll be there'Cause that's what friends are supposed to do

If you're tossing and you're turning and you just can't fall asleepI'll sing a song beside youAnd if you ever forget how much you really mean to meEveryday I will remind you

We find out what we're made ofWhen we are called to help our friends in need

You can count on me like one, two, three, I'll be thereAnd I know when I need itI can count on you like four, three, two, and you'll be there'Cause that's what friends are supposed to do

You'll always have my shoulder when you cryI'll never let go, never say goodbye
You know you can count on me like one, two, three, I'll be thereAnd I know when I need it I can count on you like four, three, two, and you'll be there'Cause that's what friends are supposed to do

You can count on me 'cause I can count on you

We have been blessed with some amazing friends in our lives. When choosing the song that our bridal party would walk down the aisle to, it was tough. We didn't want traditional music. We wanted something that really meant something to us. I'm not sure if you know this or not, but I'm pretty much obsessed with Bruno Mars. When we listened to this song, we just knew it was perfect for us. Every time I hear this song on the radio, I remember our wedding day and our amazing friends.

Love,
