4 more weeks
Posted: August 8th, 2009 | Author: Lisa | Filed under: Uncategorized |Dear Ziggy,
Here we are this week with just 4 more weeks to go. I saw the doctor and she wants me to have a sonogram to find out how much you weigh.
The fact that you are going to have to somehow come out of my body soon is becoming more and more apparent to me. I know it’s going to be one of the most painfully beautiful things I ever do.
Your daddy and I have been working on some playlists for you. One is strictly songs that are soothing and we call this playlist lullabies. The other is titled “Music Appreciation”.
One of the songs on this second playlist that constantly strikes a chord with me is this Tom Petty song. It always makes me feel like my life is just beginning. And it is.
It’s time to move on, time to get going
What lies ahead I have no way of knowing
But under my feet, baby, grass is growing
It’s time to move on, it’s time to get going
Broken skyline, movin’ through the airport
She’s an honest defector
Conscientious objector
Now her own protector
Broken skyline, which way to love land
Which way to something better
Which way to forgiveness
Which way do I go
It’s time to move on, time to get going
What lies ahead I have no way of knowing
But under my feet, baby, grass is growing
It’s time to move on, it’s time to get going
Sometime later, getting the words wrong
Wasting the meaning, and losing the rhyme
Nauseous adrenaline
Like breakin’ up a dog fight
Like a deer in the headlights
Frozen in real time
I’m losing my mind
It’s time to move on, time to get going
What lies ahead I have no way of knowing
But under my feet, baby, grass is growing
It’s time to move on, it’s time to get going
I’m so glad it’s time to move on. And I get to do it with you.
Love,
Mama
