YO MAMA

I don't know why, but I just wanted to post this. I have heard this song many a time but it's not a very famous song, so I decided I'd post it so you can read the beautiful message it contains. This is for my sisters, my mother, my aunts, my grandma, and all the wonderful women in my life who've put so much time, effort, love, work, blood, sweat, tears, and laughter into the families they raised or are currently raising. When I'm 89 years old, if I look back at my life, and these words are all that come to mind, I'll be satisfied. Being a mom is the most special job that Heavenly Father could have entrusted in us women. So, here ya go:

These Four Walls

Sara Evans

Wasn't that long ago

I was skippin to school with a lunchbox

Pigtails in my hair

Where did the time go?

One minute I'm playing in the sandbox

How did I get here from there

Making lunches and folding clothes

Is not the most glamorous life I know

But i've got so much more than most

I'm not famous but my kids think I'm a star

I'm not rich but I've made a million memories so far

I may not be a model but my man thinks I could be

I may not be royalty But in these four walls, I'm a queen

I had it all planned

First I'd make it big in Nashville

Then take Hollywood by storm

But it was in God's hands

There were three little lives that would need me

To one day be their mom

I wouldn't trade it for anything

Those movie stars don't have everything

I know I'm right where I wanna be

I'm not famous but my kids think I'm a star

I'm not rich but I've made a million memories so far

I may not be a model but my man thinks I could be

I'm not from royalty but in these four walls, I'm a Queen

I had to let it go but I have no regrets

I would have never known this kind of happiness
