On Hold

I've been listening to this song for some time now. And every time I hear it, I always think of the all women who have and women that will put their lives, hopes and dreams on hold for the sake of family. For the wonderful pleasure of raising children.

I personally am doing exactly what I've wanted to do since I was very young and don't feel as though I've sacrificed anything. However, I know there are plenty of you who have. (Great lyrics....much better with music!)

These Four Walls

(Sara Evans)

Wasn't that long ago

I was skipping school with a lunchbox

Pigtails in my hair

Where did the time go

One minute I'm playing in the sandbox

How'd I get to here from there

Making lunches and folding clothes

Is not the most glamourous life I know

But I've got so much more than most

[Chorus]

I'm not famous but my kids think I'm a star

Im not rich but I've made a million memories so far

I may not be a model

But My man thinks I could be

I may not be from royalty

But in these four walls

I'm the queen

I had it all planned

First I'd make it big in Nashville

Then take hollywood by storm

But it was in God's hands

There were three little lives that would need me

To one day be their mom

I wouldn't trade it for anything

Those movie stars don't have everything

I know I'm right where I wanna be

[Repeat Chorus]

I had to let it go, but I have no regrets

I would have never known this kind of happiness

[Repeat Chorus]
