fancytalkWhen Betty was born we went through many songs to find the perfect one that would induce sleep. The one that stuck and the one that we had to learn all the lyrics was I love you a bushel and a peck. That song has been sung at least a million times in the past 3.5 years.
For a while, it fell slightly out of favor as it was the magic song. The magic song that would induce sleep even when Betty didn't want to sleep. Lately, it has been requested again at bedtime. Which means a lovely snuggle and Betty singing with me now.
And that is lovely and magic making itself. Especially when we hit the third verse and Betty corrects me when I sing "it makes my life a mess, a mess of happiness". No, Mommy. It's a mess of dirtiness.
