Thanksgiving words of wisdom

Last night was one of those, 
couldn't sleep, too many thoughts on the brain.
Spent the day with another long term bestie, Tanial
and her sweet grand girl, Roen.
I had Bean and Jo and the three children hit it off
like they had been friends forever.
It was such a great visit, LONG LONG overdue.
They left with promises we will not let so much
time pass again before we see each other.
After Kd picked up Grandgirls I got hooked 
on listening to all the new songs on you tube.
This one hit hard, it says like everything i
would want my grand girls to remember in
a nutshell.
Then I remembered, Thanksgiving wishes don't
get much better than this!
Tim McGraw sings it like a boss,
but this Lori McKenna steals the 
show with her awesome words!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU ALL!

"Humble And Kind"
(written by Lori McKenna)
You know there's a light that glows by the front door
Don't forget the key's under the mat
When childhood stars shine,
Always stay humble and kind

Go to church 'cause your mamma says to
Visit grandpa every chance that you can
It won't be wasted time
Always stay humble and kind

Hold the door, say "please", say "thank you"
Don't steal, don't cheat, and don't lie
I know you got mountains to climb
But always stay humble and kind
When the dreams you're dreamin' come to you
When the work you put in is realized
Let yourself feel the pride
But always stay humble and kind

Don't expect a free ride from no one
Don't hold a grudge or a chip and here's why:
Bitterness keeps you from flyin'
Always stay humble and kind

Know the difference between sleeping with someone
And sleeping with someone you love
"I love you" ain't no pick-up line
So always stay humble and kind

Hold the door, say "please", say "thank you"
Don't steal, don't cheat, and don't lie
I know you got mountains to climb
But always stay humble and kind
When those dreams you're dreamin' come to you
When the work you put in is realized
Let yourself feel the pride
But always stay humble and kind

When it's hot, eat a root beer popsicle
Shut off the AC and roll the windows down
Let that summer sun shine
Always stay humble and kind

Don't take for granted the love this life gives you
When you get where you're going don't forget turn back around
And help the next one in line
Always stay humble and kind
