A special way to honor Addie

This video was made for Addie by Aunt Katie.  You have had quite an impact on her heart, Addison Grace.  And your obsession with her makes it clear the impact that she has made in your life, as well.  Katie choose a very appropriate song to express her desire for your life.  And I have to agree, she found one that expresses exactly what daddy and I pray for you every day!  You have defied so many odds, sweet girl, and you continue to kick butts and take names.  And the best is yet to come!!

"I Lived"

One Republic

Hope when you take that jump, you don't fear the fall

Hope when the water rises, you build a wall

Hope when the crowd screams out, they're screaming your name

Hope if everybody runs, you choose to stay

Hope that you fall in love, and it hurts so bad

The only way you can know is give it all you have

And I hope that you don't suffer but take the pain

Hope when the moment comes, you'll say...

I, I did it all

I, I did it all

I owned every second that this world could give

I saw so many places , the things that I did

with every broken bone, I swear I lived

Hope that you spend your days, but they all add up

And when the sun goes down, hope you raise your cup

Oh, I wish that I could witness all your join and and all your pain

But until my moment comes, I'll say

I, I did it all

I, I did it all

I owned every second that this world could give

I saw so many places , the things that I did

with every broken bone, I swear I lived
