He’ll never remember the 5th of July, 2008, when he was in the car, unhappy, and I and two of my sisters and one of their boyfriends sang lullabies to quiet him – Candle on the Water, Baby Mine, Stay Awake, Feed the Birds – and I marveled at the simple beauty of their voices in the dark, and he squeezed my thumb in his tiny hand, and fell asleep as we sang into his ear, hour after hour.

i have to say, visiting your site is very relaxing…great travel stories, cute baby pics, happy parents 🙂
i mean, sure, you have your crap days at work and all, but really, the youtube video-of-the-moment featuring Jack\’s sweet mug seems to make everything a-ok.
or is it the beers and pizza?

just hearing your voice in my head singing \’feed the birds\’ is making me drowsy. i can only imagine how it sounds when there are two more wat*** girls joining in the vocals.
