I am so amazed

I am so amazed....


that I worked out this morning;
that I have already had 26 ounces of water today;
that we have unpacked more boxes;
that my honey and I continue to grow in our communication skills (rather I continue to grow);
that we have not gone nuts with this move (no comments please);
that Sweet Pea slept through the night;
that we had a fairly smooth day.

Are like me when you listen to songs?  Some days I really pay attention to the words and other days when I am just listening to the music and the words don't even break the brain barrier.  Well today was one of those days where the words not just broke the barrier they hit me in the heart.  As I was working out this morning and listening to my mp3 player, a song by Keith Urban came on and I was just in awe by the words.

God Made Woman by Keith Urban

It never ceases to blow my mind
It does it to me everytime
Standing here looking at you
It makes me wonder what he was up to
Was he thinking about me
When he thought about you

When God made woman
He must've been proud
He must've been crying aloud
Or laughing out loud
Must've felt like the first time
Getting kissed by the sun
When God made woman

It must've been the most beautiful day
Looking down on all creation
He took a river that winds and turns
He took a fire that breathes and burns
And put it all in place
In the most perfect way

When God made woman
He must've been proud
He must've been crying aloud
Or laughing out loud
Must've felt like the first time
Getting kissed by the sun
When God made woman

When God made woman
He must've been proud
He must've been crying aloud
Or laughing out loud
Must've felt like the first time
Getting kissed by the sun
When God made woman

When Hillary Lindsey, Gordie Sampson, and Steve McEwan wrote this song I cannot imagine what was going through their mind but what a beautiful tribute to us as women and what God created. Thank you, God for creating me. I am truly grateful that I am a woman. I know we all have days where we may say "calgon take me away" but think about all the joys that come with being a woman. Let me help you: falling in love (I mean really falling in love for the first time); feelings you get from your first kiss; having that "Cinderella" wedding; having a husband who treats you like Christ treats the church; being pregnant and feeling life growing inside of you; the joys of motherhood; watching your children grow; growing more in love with your spouse everyday; and oh so many more things so again I agree with Keith's song When God Made Woman.
