Fields of Gold

It had been a while since I heard this song.

I caught it on the radio and I was reminded of how beautiful a song it is.

A couple of the lyrics really spoke to me and where I am right now.

"I never made promises lightly, and there have been some that I've broken....

I swear in the day's still left we will walk in fields of gold..."

Oh the promises I've made- and broken.

Some promises that I have made lightly are to Mya. I'm sure we have all been there.

"I will help you read that book as soon as I finish printing these reports"

"Promise Mommy?"

"Ya, uh huh, Just a minute sweetie"

and some days that minute just never seems to come.

PROMISES BROKEN

At four years old there are no bills, no reports, no Emails, or phone calls-

There is just the simple desire to be a priority, to simply

sit with me or make me smile and laugh- together.

I will never have my little 4 years 3 months and 3 days old again.

That moment is only for today.

I intend to Live in it.

AS WE WALK IN FIELDS OF GOLD
