Thanks Rose

I have to say Thanks to Rose--I got this song off her blog but I really liked it and it so pertains to this adoption waiting period:

One Step at a Time"
Jordin Sparks


Hurry up and wait
So close, but so far away
Everything that you've always dreamed of
Close enough for you to taste, but you just can't touch

You wanna show the world
But no one knows your name yet
Who and when and where and how you're gonna make it
You know you can, if you get the chance
In your face, the door keeps slammin
Now you're feeling more and more frustrated
And you're getting all kinds of impatient
Waiting

(Chorus)
We live and we learn
To take one step at a time
There's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly, or falling in love
It's gonna happen, when it's supposed to happen
And we find the reasons why
One step at a time

You believe, and you doubt
You're confused, you've got it all figured out
Everything that you've always wished for
Could be yours, should be yours, or would be yours
If they only knew

You wanna show the world
But no one knows your name yet
Who and when and where and how you're gonna make it
You know you can, if you get the chance
In your face, the door keeps slammin
Now you're feeling more and more frustrated
And you're gettin all kinds of impatient
Waiting

We live and we learn
To take one step at a time
There's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly, or falling in love
It's gonna happen, when it's supposed to happen
And we find the reasons why
One step at a time

When you can't wait any longer
But there's no end in sight
It's your faith that makes you strong
Only way we get there
Is one step at a time

Hi Mary,

Don't worry, I stole it from someone else's blog!! They are in Kaz now adopting a baby boy. They didn't have the name of the song or the words. It was just playing on their site and when I listened I thought "PERFECT!!" I figured out the title and looked up the words. Now, I hear it on the radio all the time!!
