Godspeed

It's been pretty up and down lately. Sometimes I miss Connor so much that my heart keeps breaking. It's amazing how many times that can happen, but I still pick up the pieces and learn to live with the pain. I miss his beautiful face with his cute button nose and his big feet. He is such a beautiful boy!

I was listening to my playlist while at work and the song "Godspeed" by Dixie Chicks came on. It's a beautiful lullaby written for her son and it reminds me of Connor and how I want him to be safe and healthy and whole. It made me cry. It's a sweet song and one I hope to sing to him one day.


"Godspeed (Sweet Dreams)"

Dragon tales and the "water is wide"
Pirate's sail and lost boys fly
Fish bite moonbeams every night
And I love you

Godspeed, little man
Sweet dreams, little man
Oh my love will fly to you each night on angels wings
Godspeed
Sweet dreams

The rocket racer's all tuckered out
Superman's in pajamas on the couch
Goodnight moon, will find the mouse
And I love you

Godspeed, little man
Sweet dreams, little man
Oh my love will fly to you each night on angels wings
Godspeed
Sweet dreams

God bless mommy and match box cars
God bless dad and thanks for the stars
God hears "Amen," wherever we are
And I love you

Godspeed, little man
Sweet dreams, little man
Oh my love will fly to you each night on angels wings
Godspeed
Godspeed
Godspeed
Sweet dreams

I love you Connor!!!
