You are my Sunshine...

I have never been one for singing... I know my voice is terrible so I just don't.  I have left all the singing of nursery rhymes to my husband. But lately I have been stuck on the song my sister and I used to sing as children. I have been singing it non-stop to Andrew for days now.

Of course, I only knew the first verse so I had to look up the rest of the words.
First of all, it was written in 1939! I am always surprised by how old things are. I am going to have to hunt down a recording on it.
After looking up the rest of the lyrics I found that its not the best song for a mother to sing to her child.  It's actually a song about a person begging their significant other not to ever leave them. Still a pretty song, but I am not crazy about begging relationships or desperation.

Doesn't matter though, I still love this song and I think I am going to find away to incorporate it into Andrews room. 
There are so many creative and pretty ways to do it.
 

"You Are My Sunshine"

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey
You never know, dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away

The other night, dear, as I lay sleeping
I dreamt I held you in my arms
When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken
So I hung my head, and I cried

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey
You never know, dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away

I'll always love you and make you happy
If you will only say the same
But if you leave me to love another,
You'll regret it all one day

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey
You never know, dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away

Please don't take my sunshine away
