Crazy Like You

Three years ago on March 15th, I said "I Do" to the cutest red-bearded guy in the world. Clearly, that's just my opinion, but I consider myself pretty durn lucky to have been blessed with such an incredible, patient, kind, loving, hard working, determined, cowboy of a husband. He rocks my world.

One of my good friends from Baylor, Josh Grider, is an extremely talented singer/songwriter. He had a band in college named Riverside and changed the name several years ago to, The Josh Grider Band. Makes sense. Well, he wrote a wonderful song a few years ago for his precious wife, Kristi, and it is a song that has meant a lot to Trav and I over the past few years.



Crazy Like You
By: Josh Grider

Well people sing songs all the time
Bout fallin in love and losing their minds
But it ain't love that drive folks mad
It's livin this life day in, day out
Tryin to figure out what it's all about
The who's, the when's, the where's, the why's, and the maybe's

I say everybody's crazy so what you need to do
You need to find somebody crazy like you
Someone you can fuss and fight with
And when you make up, then you can love all night with
Someone who shares your particular point of view
Oh their bound to be crazy, just make sure they're crazy like you

I looked high, I looked low, looked far, looked wide
B'for I looked in a mirror and I realized
I spend my time lookin for the wrong thing
A perfect insane would be so mundane
A man like me, I'm subject to change
And I'm lookin for someone who's track's'll fit my train

I say everybody's crazy so what you need to do
You need to find somebody crazy like you
Someone you can fuss and fight with
And when you make up then you can love all night with
Someone who shares your particular point of view
Oh thier bound to be crazy, just make sure they're crazy like you

I found me a girl and she's five foot four
And I never found a girl that I adore more
We are in tune and out of touch with all the same things
And she's as wild and mean as a deep blue sea
And pure and sweet as honey from a bee
And I love her to death, cuz that girl's crazy just like me

I say everybody's crazy so what you gonna to do
You need to find somebody crazy like you
Someone you can fuss and fight with
And when you make up then you can love all night with
Someone who shares your particular point of view
Oh their bound to be crazy, just make sure they're crazy like you

That is us in a nutshell. I have had the best 3 years as a Riley and I wouldn't change it for the world. God has blessed us beyond our wildest dreams.
