Wow - I am finally getting with it and have added a playlist to the blog. I hope it enhances your viewing pleasure (Mom and Dad - my faithful, and perhaps only(?) readers). I didn't select "shuffle," so if you want to hear a different song, just scroll to the bottom and click on it (Mom and Dad). The music thing is really Tony's passion, but I took my amateur crack at it.
The songs I selected and why:
My Wish by Rascal Flatts - I am not a "country music lover," but I have always loved this song. I sing it to the boys. And I use the term "sing" very loosely.
Somewhere Over the Rainbow - by a Hawaiian artist named Israel Kamakawiwo'ole (who is more commonly referred to as "IZ" for obvious reasons). He had health problems and passed away in 1997 at age 38. This song is wonderful.
A New Day by Celine Dion - This is a song she wrote for her son. I listened to it for years, dreaming of the day I would have a son.
Home by Michael Buble - I am a huge Michael Buble fan and even though this song is a love song, I used to listen to it when we were waiting for Sam to come home. I cried many tears listening to this and dreaming of the day he would be here to sing it to.
Beautiful Boy by John Lennon - he wrote it for his son Sean. Tony is the biggest Beatles fan you could ever meet and we love this song and our beautiful boys.
God Blessed the Broken Road by Rascal Flatts - another country song that I listened to while we were in process. Sam and Luke, God most certainly blessed the road that led us straight to you.
Sugar Dumpling by Sam Cooke - I am a HUGE Sam Cooke fan and sing this song to the boys. It is written for his wife/girlfriend, but I still love it. I have been known to dance around the house with them in my arms singing it. Thank goodness only my mom and dad are reading this!!
Just the Way You Are by Billy Joel - the title says it all
Stand by Me by The Temptations - because I will always love and protect them

I think the playlist is a great idea. I think it make the blog more personal. Nice choices of songs. Celine Dion is my favorite. God knows I cried many tears with that song dreaming of Christopher.
Hey don't forget me! : ) I LOVE the somewhere over the rainbow song - that is Mia's song. Whenever it comes on she says, "up, up up and wants me to hold her and dance."
