I'LL GIVE...

Yesterday I lived for me
and I was so alone as
I could be...
Then I saw you and how you give yourself away
And I want to live for you today

I'll give, I'll hold nothing
I'll give, I'll hold nothing
I'll give and I'll hold nothing back
My love is a lot like me
wanting nothing less t
han everything
but I know you're the only one that's true
And only giving makes me close to you

I'll give, I'll hold nothing
I'll give, I 'll hold nothing
I'll give and I'll hold nothing back

My hands are open so take what you see
And I'll keep nothing hold nothing back for me

I'll give, I'll hold nothing
I'll give, I'll hold nothing (oh nothing)
I'll give, I'll hold nothing
I'll give, I'll hold nothing(oh nothing)

I'll give and I'll hold nothing back
These wonderful lyrics are from a Smalltown Poets album I have. I was listening to it yesterday & I teared up. Becoming a mommy has changed me. I really do feel like I am giving all my best to my sons. And it feels amazing to sacrifice for them.

They were SO tiny! I love the new pics in their onesies. Such chubby leg cutie pies!
