Just the way that I am

Martina McBride sings a great song: "My Baby Loves me Just the Way That I Am" Whenever I hear this song, I think of J.

Don't need no copy of Vogue magazine
Don't need to dress like no Beauty Queen
High heels or sneakers, he don’t give a damn
My baby loves me just the way that I am
My baby loves me just the way that I am


He never tells me I'm not good enough
Just gives me unconditional love
He loves me tender and he loves me mad
He loves me silly and he loves me sad


Chorus:
He thinks I'm pretty, he thinks I'm smart
He likes my nerve and he loves my heart
He's always sayin' he's my biggest fan
My baby loves me just the way that I am
My baby loves me just the way that I am



When there's dark clouds in my eyes
He just sits back and lets 'em roll on by
Come in like a lion go out like a lamb
My baby loves me just the way that I am
My baby loves me just the way that I am


He thinks I'm pretty, he thinks I'm smart
He likes my nerve and he loves my heart
Don't see no reason to change my plan
My baby loves me just the way that I am
My baby loves me just the way that I am



He loves me when I'm cute.
He loves me when I'm not.


He loves me when I'm scared.



He loves me when I'm being obnoxious.

He loves me when I'm being goofy. (Mom and I were playing Charlie's Angels on her birthday a few years ago in the first picture, and in the second I'm mini golfing with my club upside down.)



He loves me when I'm being weird. (I took pictures at the car wash...)





He loves me when I'm silly.


He loves me, imperfections and all. (Those I was born with, like the birthmark in my right eye, and those I received along the way, like the scratches from my cat Sid.)







He loves me even after he's seen lovely pictures like this.



He loves me even when I don't feel very loveable or attractive.




I know that J loves me...just the way that I am.
