Nursery Songs

When each of my boys were babies, I had one certain song that I would sing to them.  They became "our song".

Baby L, was a colicky baby, so I spent a lot of time singing this song:


When H was a baby, I sang this:


Not nearly as well, of course.  It probably comes as no surprise that both of the songs are from musicals, or that one of them has Gene Kelly in it.  I am pretty predictable.

Do you and your "baby" have a song?

Lovely memories for your kids!

I always sang a medley of gospel hymns; Old Rugged Cross, This is My Father's World, etc.

P.S. Thanks for the birthday wishes :)

I sang "It's You" from the Music Man to my son when he was a baby. Now, when I sing, he says "Daddy, stop!" Good news is, my daughter is dancing when I sing and saying "More!"
