Sugarland Take Me As I Am

I am totally into this new Sugarland Album. Dang she can sing!!!

I have two dream jobs, one is to sing country music, the other is to write novels. Obviously, I am keeping my day job!!!

Here are the lyrics to the song I heard today by Sugarland that remind me of me:

If you want it Come and get it
But understand
You take me as I am
Slow too trust but I'm quick too love
I push too hard and I give too much
I ain't sayin' I'm perfect but I promise I'm worth it

I think my Daddy would agree with all of that. I have always worn my heart on my sleeve and look for the good in everyone. If you earn my trust you will always have it. I am a perfectionist and I believe everyone should work as hard as I am willing to work myself. But, I will go above and beyond for anyone, even strangers.

This past fall, Daddy said to me he had always believed that everyone deep inside them had some redeeming qualities, but now as he has gotten older, he is not so sure. I hope he will change his mind back. He has always taught me to take responsibility for my actions and to look at my part. Of course, he probably never thought he would tell me that this was totally someone else's fault. I am a Daddy's girl and don't tell my sisters, but I am his favorite.

My Great Aunt was teasing me just last week. She asked me if I still thought I was my Daddy's favorite. I told her yes without even thinking.
