Don't kill the butterfly....

[Adelle]

Okay so I know that this is not really what this song is about, but it has touched me in this way.  I am at this moment about 10 weeks pregnant with my third and last.  I already have two little boy and i so desperately want a little girl.  My last we where trying for a girl and when I found out he was a boy it took me a good couple of weeks for me to get over it.  With this one I am so scared that I will not be able to get over it.  i am so scared that I will not love him as much as if he was a girl.  So today in my car i heard this song.  And it made me realalize girl/boy, purple or green that is MY baby.  How could I not love it no matter what it is.  The baby doesn't chose what sex it is going to be so why should I punish it for that?  Like I said I know that this song is about something different, but that is just the way it has touched me.....

 

butterfly (rick ferrell/ jennifer hicks/ mike denny)

she took the test and failed it
we blamed each other for a while
all our big plans had no little ones in them
we just weren't ready for a child

so we set the alarm for seven
there's a place right down the street
it was a night like any other night
but when i fell to sleep

i saw his face he had my eyes
i swear he had your smile
chasin' a butterfly
he laughed and skipped and caught it
softly placed it in my hands and said please
don't kill the butterfly

i woke up kinda shakin'
i tried not to wake her from her sleep
but then she quietly whispered
"i just had this dream"

i saw his face
he had your eyes i swear he had my smile
chasin' a butterfly
he laughed and skipped and caught it
softly placed it in my hands and said please
don't kill the butterfly

the alarm went off at seven
but we laid in bed 'til noon
she and i spent the rest of the day
painting butterflies in his room

i saw his face he had my eyes
i swear he had your smile
chasin' a butterfly
he laughed and skipped and caught it
softly placed it in my hands and said please
don't kill the butterfly... don't kill the butterfly
