I Knew I Loved You

It's so funny - music makes such an impact on our lives without our even realizing it sometimes... for instance, the following song...

"I Knew I Loved You"

Savage Garden

Maybe it's intuition 
But some things you just don't question
Like in your eyes
I see my future in an instant
and there it goes
I think I've found my best friend
I know that it might sound more than
a little crazy but I believe 

[chorus:] 

I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you into life
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life 

There's just no rhyme or reason
only this sense of completion
and in your eyes
I see the missing pieces
I'm searching for
I think I found my way home
I know that it might sound more than
a little crazy but I believe

[repeat chorus] 

A thousand angels dance around you
I am complete now that I found you 

[repeat chorus to fade]

This song when it came out in the 90's was a favorite of mine because I loved the idea of a love like it described for the man that I would marry... I wanted him to be my best friend, I wanted to know in an instant that he was it - and honestly for the most part my husband fits and more... but listening to Amazon Prime 90's channel today when this song came on and the first thought that came to mind was my son! I dreamed of him... dreamed of his sweet smile, his bright blue eyes (yes blue eyes even though I knew it was highly unlikely to happen given both hubby and my eyes are brown), his bubbling laughter, just everything that my son is I dreamed of him being! I waited so long for him and I knew I loved him long before I knew he was here - He might not have a thousand angels dancing around him, but he has his siblings and his great grandmother who I know would have cherished everything that he is just as much as I do... And I feel so much more than complete when with him. 

Truly I imagine I'll feel that way with each child that we are blessed to have here earth side, but since he's the first I think I'll let him have this as a moment and I'll cherish it for him since he won't remember these moments. 

Maybe I'm just being sentimental...
