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.

This song is sung to the tune of the Brahm's lullaby.


Go to sleep,
go to sleep,
go to sleep, my babies.

Close your eyes,
go to sleep,
and you'll dream sweet dreams.

Mommy loves you,
Daddy loves you,
the whole family loves you.

Go to sleep,
go to sleep,
and you'll dream sweet dreams.
