'Inappropriate' Songs for a Preschooler
I love music. I love concerts. I love windows down, volume up, singing at the top of my lungs car rides. Problem is, my older daughter (almost 5) is really starting to pay attention to what we’re listening to – eek! I still have this pre-kid memory of a little boy singing loudly at the airport, headphones in ears,… Read More 'Inappropriate' Songs for a Preschooler
Musical Prozac
We all have our “moments of doubt and pain.” I have found that music can lift my spirits like nothing else — enough to make it through the day, and sometimes the week, until the crisis passes or higher authorities are summoned. Even if you feel as though “no pill’s gonna cure my ill,” I’m… Read More Musical Prozac
Music for My Girls
My four-year-old loves to make up songs and knows all the lyrics and track numbers for her favorite CD. My 18-month-old loves dancing and she’s got some great moves already. When the music in the car stops between songs, she starts whining, “more, more!” I feel so lucky to have a husband who is able… Read More Music for My Girls
New Tunes for Your Christmas Playlist

There’s nothing that takes me back to my childhood faster than Perry Como, Nat King Cole, or Bing Crosby crooning a holiday tune. But my collection includes more… Read More New Tunes for Your Christmas Playlist

High School Throwback: Melanie
It looks like mine will be the final installment in High School Throwback week. I still haven’t gotten caught up in reading everyone else’s posts, but so far they look great, judging from the photos. Unfortunately, I don’t have in my possession any high school photos, and I didn’t have time to ask around for… Read More High School Throwback: Melanie
Mom’s Greatest Hits
I love music. It is the one thing in life that can uplift my spirits, calm me, and remind me to take life a little less seriously. There are many recording artists out there who have given me great advice through song when I needed it most. However, there are many songs that have taken… Read More Mom’s Greatest Hits
Important Things I Taught My Children – Part I
Yes, of course I taught them to say please and thank you, how to suck through a straw and not to wipe their noses on their sleeves. There are so many things we must do to mold those young minds. It’s a huge responsibility. But I believe that the most important thing I taught them… Read More Important Things I Taught My Children – Part I
