My Wish – Rascal Flatts
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to

I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too
I’m Thankful – Circanineti

I’ll say: mama, papa, I’m thankful

I Hope You Dance – Lee Ann Womack
I hope you never lose your sense of wonder

Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens

You’ve got each other, that’s your mother
Because You Loved Me – Celine Dion
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn’t speak

You gave me faith ’cause you believed
I’m everything I am because you loved me

You showed me everything that I should know
You showed me just how to walk without your hands
‘Cause mom you always were the perfect fan
