I know I will forget the sweet smell of their hair, the light in their eyes when I walk in a room, and the sweet taste if their kiss on my lips. I will forget their first steps, their first words, and their first dance move. But, because I have this blog, I will have a reminder of the songs we sing at night.
Katie
Go to sleep, sweet Katie,
Time to get some rest,
Close your eyes, sweet Katie,
So you can wake at your best.
It’s time to dream of rainbows,
High up in the sky,
It’s time to wonder what
Is on the other side.
Go to sleep, sweet Katie,
Time to get some rest,
Close your eyes, sweet Katie,
So you can wake at your best.
It’s time to dream of Princesses,
All dancing in a row,
In their big, pretty dresses,
And their hair in a bow.
Go to sleep, sweet Katie,
It’s time to get some rest,
Close your eyes, sweet Katie,
So you can wake at your best.
Sarah
Sarah Pace, Sarah Pace,
Has such a beautiful, sweet little face,
Eyes and ears and mouth and nose,
When you smile we know it all will glow.
Sarah Pace, Sarah Pace,
Has such sweet little lovable arms.
She hugs so tight and squeezes hard,
And loves me so I know in my heart.
Sarah Pace, Sarah Pace,
Has such sweet little lovable legs,
She runs and plays and kicks and jumps,
And keeps me up and chasing her toes.
Sarah Pace, Sarah Pace,
Megan still passes out to Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star just like my other two used to. But I am working hard on her special song.
Just thought I’d share this, more for me than you.
Merry Christmas Eve Eve!
I had a song I made up to sing to my kids when they were babies and we all still remember it. Every now and then I'll sing it and it brings back so many sweet memories.
I hope my girls remember them, I really do!
so sweet… :)
I have a special song for each baby, too. I didn't make them up, though. That is extra special.
Kanin's is You Are My Sunshine
GracieAnn's is Gracie Girl by Ben Folds
Caleb's is Sweet Baby James by James Taylor (also one of Caleb's middle names)
It is sad that we will forget all of those things. Wish I could just bottle up the sweet stuff forever.
So sweet!!
