I won't give up!!!

Lately I have just been taken away by the song I wont give up by Jason Mraz. Its hard not to think about our future boy all the time... But this song grabs my heart in so many ways, and makes me think of him, and our adoption! Just because no matter what comes at us in this entire process, I am not quitting, I will not back down or give up on our future boy! God is getting us to him one way or another, and I refuse to give up on that promise! Not only is the song amazing, but the video is pretty awesome as well. Jason Mraz definitely outdid himself on this one. I wanted to share the lyrics and video:

When I look into your eyes
It's like watching the night sky
Or a beautiful sunrise
There's so much they hold
And just like them old stars
I see that you've come so far
To be right where you are
How old is your soul?

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up

And when you're needing your space
To do some navigating
I'll be here patiently waiting
To see what you find

'Cause even the stars they burn
Some even fall to the earth
We've got a lot to learn
God knows we're worth it
No, I won't give up

I don't wanna be someone who walks away so easily
I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make
Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use
The tools and gifts we got yeah, we got a lot at stake
And in the end, you're still my friend at least we did intend
For us to work we didn't break, we didn't burn
We had to learn how to bend without the world caving in
I had to learn what I've got, and what I'm not
And who I am

I won't give up on us (no I'm not giving up)
God knows I'm tough enough (I am tough, I am loved)
We've got a lot to learn (we're alive, we are loved)
God knows we're worth it (and we're worth it)

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up

  2. Hi!

    I found your blog through Bekah's (Saying Yes to Adoption). Congrats on being in the process of adopting a little boy!

    My husband and I are adopting siblings from Ethiopia through AGCI--we are on our third homestudy visit. SO excited!
