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"
"And when you smile - the whole world stops and stares for awhile - because you're amazing just the way you are".
