Let It Be!


I LOVE BROOKE WHITE!!! My sister knows Brooke White and has been working on getting me hooked for over a year. So vote for her, she is great and so "pure" as the judges have labeled her. Last week she gave an amazing, emotional performance of the song "Let It Be". The combination of her voice, the emotion she put into it and the words really touched me. The words go like this (as if not everyone knows them):


When I find myself in times of trouble,
mother Mary comes to me,
speaking words of wisdom, let it be.

And in my hour of darkness
she is standing right in front of me,
speaking words of wisdom, let it be.


Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be.
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.


And when the broken hearted people living in the world agree,
there will be an answer, let it be.

For though they may be parted
there is still a chance that they will see,
there will be an answer. let it be.

Let it be, let it be, .....
And when the night is cloudy, there is still a light,
that shines on me, shine until tomorrow, let it be.

I wake up to the sound of music,
mother Mary comes to me,
speaking words of wisdom, let it be.

Let it be, let it be, .....

I am sure this song has different meaning to everyone, but this is what struck me as I listened to her sing it. I feel like I talk about this alot, and I am sorry, but it is something that is really big in my life right now. I want a baby so bad, and sometimes I really struggle with the fact that almost everyone I know has been blessed with a child, except us. I was having a rough night when Brooke sang the song and it hit me hard. I will be a mother someday, when the time is right. I know that it will sometimes be really hard to be patient, but it WILL happen. I am doing everything I can do, so for now I need to stop worrying about it and (at the risk of sounding cheesy) I just need to let it be!

I loved this song too. I was bummed that last night wasn't as good. . . BUT I didn't think it was as horrible as the judges made it sound. (here come's the sun) HEY maybe another song for you. . . struggle, struggle, and now here comes the sun :)

Happy Anniversary. I thought about you guys monday when we were all dressed in our green. Here's for Luck of the Irish headed your way!

So would you like me to post some pictures of the beast on my blog :) Just kidding those pictures are way too "sexy" for the public eye!

Don't apologize for writing about this topic a lot! I use my blog to have "girl time" and that's what we would be talking about if we were together, so I like reading what you have to say... whether it's something hilarious (like everything you say) or something you're having a hard time with. Reading your blog has made me miss you a lot!! You are so great Lindsey. We need to have a little reunion.

I love her too!

I think you will be a mommy as well. And you will be a good one. I don't think you talk about it too much either. It's kinda an all consuming thing when that's what you want. I feel bad for writing about my pregnancy as much as I do, because I know you and a couple of other people that read my blog and I worry about them. I hope you know I think of you, and I hope you don't feel like I am ever trying to brag or anything of that sort.

I read your comment on Naomi's blog, and I know it would probably be close to impossible to get here, but you should really try to make it to good ole SJ for the
24th of July. I always say it's the best time to be here. That and during the fair in September, but if you could you would have so much fun. Have you ever been here for the 24th before?

You are in our prayers and your faith is an example to us.
