Somebody's Hero

I thought i'd mix it up a little and share one of my favorite songs. It is called, "Somebody's Hero" by Jamie O'Neal. And it's all about being a mom- the joys and the sorrow. It reminds me a lot of my mom's relationship with her mom. It is a great song.
The lyrics are so great. Music is very special to me. For me, music is the most powerful form of expressing beliefs and feelings. And i get goosebumps and tears every time i hear this song.

Here are some of my favorite lyrics:

A hero to her baby with a skinned up knee
A little kiss is all she needs
The keeper of the cheerios
The voice that brings Snow White to life
Bedtime stories every night
And that smile lets her know
She's somebody's hero

She didn't get a check every week like a nine-to fiver
But she's been a waiter, and a cook and a taxi driver
For twenty years, there at home, until the day her girl was grown
Giving all her love to her was her life's ambition


Here's a link to watch it on youtube, or i could email the mp3 to you if anyone wants.
