Down Right Beautiful

Christmas time always makes me sentimental. It brings such feelings of love and home. I count my blessings, especially for Riley. She has changed our lives in numerous ways, teaching us acceptance, grace, and above all the real meaning of love. The lyrics to the song Down Right Beautiful are wonderful. They remind me of Riley. I Hope you enjoy. Merry Christmas to everyone. Thank you for sharing in the Upside of Downs.
It was a Labor Day to remember when she came into this world
it was the day we had waited for so long.
Then the Doctor came and said to us with worry on his brow,
we’ll have to take her down the hall with us for now.
The word came back the very next day, your girl will be just fine,
but she will have some special needs unlike yours and mine,
but she will give you lots of love the kind that’s seldom seen,
and now I know she’s the child of my dreams.
She’s down right beautiful, she’s my little girl,
she’s down right beautiful, and she fills my world,
with lots of love, lots of smiles, and she’s happy can’t you see.
Yeah she’s down right beautiful to me.
Now she’s growing up oh so fast I can scarce believe my eyes,
it seems like only yesterday when I’d hear her cry,
now I know the day will come when she’ll go away,
till then she’s down right beautiful to stay.
She’s down right beautiful, she’s my little girl,
she’s down right beautiful, and she fills my world,
with lots of love, lots of smiles, and she’s happy can’t you see.
Yeah she’s down right beautiful to me.
She fills my world with lots of smiles and she’s happy can’t you see.
Yeah she’s down right beautiful to me.em>
