Bedtime Songs

Tonight Youngest Son's Room Bedtime:

W: "Mom tell me about your Dad. What was he like?"
Me: "He sang to me every night, if I was still awake when he got home."
W: "What songs mom, what songs?
Me: "All my favorites: Five Foot Two, Eyes Are Blue, Please Don't Sell My Daddy No More Wine, Old 97, Two Little Girls in Blue, The Green Green Grass of Home, Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Old Oak Tree."
W: "Mom, how old were you when he died?"
Me: "32"


And I think how lucky I am to have had him as my father for thirty two years. If you'd like to hear him sing to you too, then go here:
