My girls each have their own song that I like sing to them. Ashlyn requests hers almost daily.
Dacia's is a song I learned at girls camp when I was younger. It's called It's a web.
It's a web, like a spiders web,
spun by the silver light in shining,
spun by the moon in my room at night.
It's a web made to catch a dream,
hold it fast 'til I awaken,
as if to tell me my dream is all right.
Ashlyn's is out of the primary song book. It's I often go walking, but instead of singing dear Mother all flowers remind me of you, I sing Dear Ashlyn.
After I made that her song I got thinking that it might confuse her someday hearing that in primary and them not singing dear Ashlyn. Sure enough it happened last week on Mother's Day. The primary kids sang it during sacrament. Ashlyn yells "their singing my song". So I held her close and sang "Dear Ashlyn" so she wouldn't notice them say "mother".
Brylees song I found on youtube. So I can just post the video. It's really cute.
You might start seeing some posts of the girls favorites or other random stuff, just because I do plan on printing all this stuff in a book for our family journal/scrapbook.

Hyrum's sister sent that song to him back before we got married and he has called me "shlookum shlookum" ever since then, from that song. I'm so glad you posted it because we've been looking for it!
