Daddy's Little Girl

So I am super excited to be having a girl. Chris said all along that he really wanted another boy (3-4 boys actually!)....but I think he is secretly pleased that he will have daddy's little girl to spoil. After finding out we are expecting a little princess, he downloaded a song on iTunes, "Gracie" by Ben Folds. It is the sweetest song...Ben Folds is singing to his daughter. It is even more special because Ashlyn's middle name will be Grace, and I think I will be calling her Gracie as a nickname.

Here are the lyrics complements of www.songmeanings.net:

you can't fool me
i saw you when you came out
you got your momma's taste
but you got my mouth
you will always have a part of me
and nobody else is ever gonna see
gracie girl

with your cards to your chest
walking on your toes
what you got in the box
only gracie knows
and i would never try to make you be
anything you didn't really want to be
gracie girl

life flies by in seconds
you're not a baby
gracie, you're my friend
you'll be a lady soon
but until then
you got to do what i say

you nodded off in my arms watching tv
i won't move you an inch
even though my arm's asleep
one day you're gonna want to go
i hope we taught you everything
you need to know
gracie girl

they will always be apart of me
nobody else is ever going to see
but you and me
my little girl
my gracie girl
