Maresa has always listened to music at night to fall asleep by. Before she was born, my mother-in-law gave her a tape that we have since transferred to a CD called Blessings for my Daughter. Since she's about to be 12, I thought it would be a good gift idea to make her a new CD with some of my favorite songs that touch my heart about our relationship. I know what you're thinking... Good Grief - she's still listening to the same music that she listened to when she was an infant? And the answer is Yes. The CD is absolutely beautiful and is full of affirming scripture songs that she loves. Even though she has tried out others, she always goes back to this one. So, I'm hoping my gift doesn't end up in the pile of those that have come and gone.
I finished the play list yesterday and was listening to it this morning while getting ready to go run some errands. Now, you should know that I've been a basket case for about two weeks for some reason. Listening to this sent me right over the edge. I have cried at just about every song and am now second guessing whether I really want to send her into dreamland all weepy every night!
Here's the list.... I dare you to make it through it without crying.
