My Singer

Every night as part of bedtime routine I slather Sammy with lotion and put him in his jammies. The whole time I do this I sing to him.



The same songs every night.


I start with Goodnight my someone from the Music Man
Then I sing I will by the Beatles
Then it's either Love is Spoken Here or Child's Prayer from our church's children's hymnal
And I round it out with Abide with Me...one of my favorite religious hymns


It's a pretty well rounded playlist since my mom taught me to love musicals, my dad endowed me with a working knowledge of 95% of the Beatles songbook and they both taught me to love my Savior. Lessons I would love to pass down to my son.



The best part is that Sammy sings along with me. It is amazing.



At first I didn't want to give him too much credit...he's just 4 months old and babies make sing song sounds all the time. I didn't want to be THAT mom who is always giving her kids more credit than they really deserve.



But, after much incredulity I am ready to admit. He is definitely singing along with me.





It's my favorite part of the day.

When I get older, loosing my hair, will you still need me, will you still feed me, when I'm 64?

I sang to all my kids. It's the only time in my life that I felt confident about and audience for my abilities. I bet you dance together too. Have fun! If you were closer, I'd love to sing to Sammy. My favorites: "From This Valley" and "The Liquor Was Spilled."

Oh, that is so sweet. Ella now sings along with me every night and it makes me die of the cuteness.

Two major manufacturers of sulk premium products are pulling specific popular brands from the market because they may restrict traces of poultry antibiotics that are not approved in the U.S.
