You're Amazing--just the way you are

Thinking of the woman who told me how Alec's smile made her so happy every day, I was listening to Cassidy's music yesterday and she has the "Just the way you are"  song by Bruno Mars on it.   Keith told us that this song reminded him of Alec,  and we all agreed it does remind us all of Alec. And it has played at times that have been pure signs from Al.   There is a verse that says ,
"And when you smile - the whole world stops and stares for awhile  - because you're amazing  just the way you are". 

Yup, when Alec smiled people did stop and stare for awhile.
  The song is about a girl, so at first it seemed odd that it reminded Keith of Al , but  all of the other words fit Al,  but then we remembered a phase Alec went through when he insisted that he was a girl and he made us refer to him as a girl.  If we said , "Good Boy Alec",  he would say  "No say Good Girl".  Or if I said,  "You are my beautiful boy",   he would whine and say "nooooo", and I'd have to say, "You are my beautiful girl  Al"  and then he would smile and be happy.  He was always so silly.


The other lyrics that are so Al in this song;
"Her ( His)  eyes make the stars look like they're not shining"   (Al's  eyes were so beautiful, you could get lost in them, so soulful and he had the longest eyelashes)
"When I see your face, there's not a thing that I would change because you're amazing just the way you are"
"She's (He's) so beautiful and I tell her everyday"  ( I told Alec everyday that he was beautiful )
" Her (His) lips I could kiss them all day if she'd let me'  ( Not once did Al say no to giving a kiss)
" You know I'd never ask you change, if perfect what's you're searching for then just stay the same"

I have always loved this song, I will def hear it much differently now. When you said Alec went through a time when he wanted to be refered to as a girl, all i can see is him with the bright red wig on :-) and for me, two of the biggest things that have always stood out about alec as far as looks, is his big beautiful eyes and that constant smile,a constant smile. xoxoxoxo

Ever since Cassidy told me that this song reminds Keith of Al, I hear it in a different way. It is so Al, and I've loved the song since the first time I heard it. Alec is the most amazing little boy ever. ♥

Love the song too.

Just need to share something else... these past few days have been trying (not really important why but we'll just say I'm hurting because someone special really needed to feel loved)... well these past few days have ended up being giraffe days. Ryan ended up with giraffe toothbrush at the dentist. We go to check out and the receptionist has a dozen giraffes in front of her computer. We have been in that office for several years and have never seen the giraffes before. The next day tried finding 2 pocket folders and the only one I could find had a giraffe on it. Of course I bought it! Today took the kids to lunch, Lane wanted those nasty dinosuar chicken nuggets but they didn't have dinosaurs they had, you guessed it... giraffes! I've started to see that love my special someone needed being given and all of Alec's reminders told me to be patient. Thanks Al

He truly is amazing, the way he has touched so many lives just because he is a beautiful little boy, with eyes that can look into your soul, a smile that lights up the room, and personality to boot!
