Sing, Mothers! Sing!

My favorite quote from Sarah Plain and Tall: Of their prospective step-mother Caleb asks, "Does she sing?" The reply, "Tell Caleb I sing." Singing. Do we recognize this as an essential part of mothering? Caleb didn't ask, "Does she sing WELL?" Only, "Does she sing?" Sing to your children mothers, even during pregnancy, no matter if you are talented or not. With practice you will see improvement, but regardless, to your babes you will sound like an angel.

O, My Little Ones

Inspired by Isaiah 57:2

O, my little ones, it's time
to rest in your beds
O, my little ones, it's time
to rest your sweet heads.

Angels will watch over you
while you are sleeping
In peace you can slumber
without any weeping.

God loves little children
He said,'' Let them come unto me.''
God loves little children
by his side He wants you to be.

Blessed are you my children,
so good, honest and true
I love you my children,
and God loves you, too.




This cool, young chic named Daniela (whom I found on youtube) sang this song for me!!! Yay! I am so thrilled, she did an awesome job and I am so grateful. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do!!!

You sang this song so beautifully. Your voice is so rich, you really bring this song to life. You've taken the words and made them meaningful. Thank you again, and please sing more!

Yes, please sing more Mary! I would really appreciate you singing this song in one recording several times so that I could leave it playing. This is for enjoyment and would also help us learn the song.
