You are my Sunshine

You are my sunshine,
My only sunshine,
You make me happy
when skies are grey.
You'll 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.
As I awoke dear, I was mistaken,
so, I hung my head and I cried.

I remember my mom singing this to me when I was little. She also sang "Forever Blowing Bubbles." I've not found that on any children's CDs yet. I sing "You are my Sunshine" to Ryker now. He loves it. Funny how you repeat the things your parents did and said.

That is the song I always sang to my daughter Sarah. That would be what she would have considered "Our song"
