Stealing Cinderella

Earlier this week, Devon called me on his way to work to ask me if I had heard the song "Stealing Cinderella" by, new artist, Chuck Wicks. Evidently, US 95.7 was interviewing Chuck Wicks who was talking about this song he had written, "Stealing Cinderella," about the day he had asked his girlfriend's dad for her hand in marriage. When the interview was over, they played the song.

I was surprised that he was listening to Country Music, rather than Talk Radio, but told him "no" I hadn't heard that song. He went on to tell me how much he liked the song and said it reminded him of when he asked me to marry him. Later that day, I downloaded the song off of itunes and as I listened to it my throat started to swell and my eyes started to fill up with tears. Before I knew it I was blubbering like a baby!

Part of the song is about being in their home and looking at pictures of this woman from when she was a little girl. Moments of happiness and joy in that little girls life. Times of pillow fights, running through the sprinklers, riding her first bike, and so on.

All of us have pictures in our home of our children that we love to display and show off. They bring back memories from years that have passed that will always bring us joy when we look at them and remember back.

Since I love this song so much, i thought it would be fun to gift this song to fellow iTunes users! So, the FIRST 3 people to POST A Comment will get THIS song! You have to have iTunes, and you have to use the email address that is attached to your iTunes/apple account so I can gift you the song.

I REALLY HOPE I'M THE SECOND WINNER!!!!!!!!!!! I'm sure the song will make me cry too...sounds like a sad, nostalgic, cute song. It's sad to think that we've grown up and sad to think that someday our kids will be grown up too! Anyway, can't wait to hear it!
