Charlie

By charliesmommy

Wednesday, July 16, 2008

Without a doubt, my biggest "Miranda moment" happened about 2 and 1/2 weeks ago when my son, Charlie, was born. Throughout my pregnancy, we listened to "Me and Charlie Talkin'" and he would bounce around, obviously having great taste in music like his mom. So, when it came time to go to the hospital, of course it was on my cd to get me through the rough hours of labor. As the day went on, and I thought I was ready to give up, I told my mom to put on "Charlie's song" to get me through. It worked! By the time Charlie came, everyone in the room knew the lyrics to the song. So, my little Charlie was born to "Me and Charlie Talkin'" and I have a feeling it will always be his special song.

Now I feel like the little girl in the song when it says "we treat our love like a firefly
Like it only gets to shine for a little while
catch it in a mason jar with holes in the top
And run like hell to show it off..."

I've never been more proud or happy in my life.
