I like his style ...


I have this favorite song:


"I Love You"
by Avril Lavigne

La la
La la la la
La la
La la la la
I like your smile
I like your vibe
I like your style
But that’s not why I love you

And I, I like the way
You’re such a star
But that’s not why I love you
Hey
Do you feel, do you feel me?
Do you feel what I feel, too?
Do you need, do you need me?
Do you need me?

[Chorus]
You’re so beautiful
But that’s not why I love you
I’m not sure you know
That the reason I love you is you
Being you
Just you
Yeah the reason I love you is all that we’ve been through
And that’s why I love you

La la
La la la la
La la
La la la la
I like the way you misbehave
When we get wasted
But that’s not why I love you
And how you keep your cool
When I am complicated
But that’s not why I love you

Hey
Do you feel, do you feel me?
Do you feel what I feel, too?
Do you need, do you need me?

Do you need me?

[Chorus]
You’re so beautiful
But that’s not why I love you
And I’m not sure you know
That the reason I love you is you
Being you
Just you
Yeah the reason I love you is all that we’ve been through
And that’s why I love you

Yeah - Oh.
Oh.

Even though we didn’t make it through
I am always here for you
You

Hey
Do you feel, do you feel me?
Do you feel what I feel, too?
Do you need, do you need me?
Do you need me?

[Chorus]
You’re so beautiful
But that’s not why I love you
I’m not sure you know
That the reason I love you is you
Being you
Just you
Yeah the reason I love you is all that we’ve been through
And that’s why I love you

La la
La la la la (oh oh)
La la
La la la la (That’s why I love you)

La la
La la la la (oh oh)
La la
La la la la (That’s why I love you)


... when I first was falling in love with this song, all I could think of was my children! And how I like so many things about them, but that's not why I love them ... I just do, even if the child just drove me nuts all the time, I'd still love them - no matter what!

... and I always especially love the line that says, "I like your style" - cause that so applies to each of my children, case in point:





since potty training, Liam spends most of his time at home without pants - just a shirt and underpants - for easy bathroom trips! It was absolutely hilarious the day he added one of daddy's socks to his ensemble! yes, indeed - I like your style, little Liam!


p.s. and for the record, I do not think of my children on the lyrics of "I like the way, you misbehave when we get wasted" OR "even though we didn't make it through" - clearly none of us in this household get (or have ever been) "wasted" and I know that we'll all "make it through" with each other!!!
