I was off to work and this song came on and I promptly sobbed. As my smart, sweet and handsome boy moves on to the next chapter in his life...I hope you dance my Dex.
I Hope You Dance
I hope you never lose your sense of wonder 
You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger 
May you never take one single breath for granted 
God forbid love ever leave you empty handed 
I hope you still feel small when you stand by the ocean 
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens
Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance 
I hope you dance... I hope you dance 
I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance 
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Living might mean taking chances but they're worth taking 
Lovin' might be a mistake but it's worth making 
Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter 
When you come close to selling out reconsider 
Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance 
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance I hope you dance 
Time is a real and constant motion always
Rolling us along, tell me who wants to look back on their youth and wonder, 
where those years have gone 
Dance
Graduation was a perfect and lovely day. I am forever proud of my first born. I love you Dex!
