I thought this was quite appropriate

I posted a new video on the top of our blog because it totally fits our blog. I love this song so much. It makes me cry. We are so blessed to have 5 beautiful daughters. I especially love that even though Grant has always dreamed of having a little boy, I know without a doubt, that he would never trade any of his girls for a boy. He is so wrapped around all of their little fingers. He is such a great little girl Daddy. And I have to say, that it takes a really special man to be such a good Daddy to 5 little girls! Man, I am so lucky!
PS- Make sure you press pause on the Media Player (with the songs playing) on the side bar of my blog before you watch the video.

"All-American Girl"

Since the day they got married
He'd been praying for a little baby boy
Someone he could take fishing
Throw the football and be his pride and joy
He could already see him holding that trophy
Taking his team to state
But when the nurse came in with a little pink blanket
All those big dreams changed

And now, he's wrapped around her finger
She's the center of his whole world
And his heart belongs to that sweet, little, beautiful, wonderful, perfect
All American girl

Sixteen short years later
She was falling for the senior football star
Before you knew it he was dropping passes
Skipping practice just to spend more time with her
The coach said, hey son what's your problem
Tell me have you lost your mind
Daddy said you'll lose your free ride to college
Boy, you better tell her goodbye

But now, he's wrapped around her finger
She's the center of his whole world
And his heart belongs to that sweet, little, beautiful, wonderful, perfect
All American...

And when they got married and decided to have one of their own
She said, be honest, tell me what you want
And he said, honey you outta know
A sweet, little, beautiful one just like you
I want a beautiful, wonderful, perfect
All American...

Now, he's wrapped around her finger
She's the center of his whole world
And his heart belongs to that sweet, little, beautiful, wonderful, perfect
All American girl

All American girl

What a great song Carrie sings, even though I am not a huge country fan, she makes great songs. And this does fit your sweet adorable family, it's your new theme song.... Grant is a great guy, he's for sure a keeper. =)

I think every dad need at least one girl...and if they have all boys then at least he has his one girl!

That is too sweet Angela! I was (and still am) a Daddy's girl so I know it is such a special relationship. That is the one main reason I want to have one girl so Jeremy can have that with her. Your family is so beautiful!
