Lullabies for baby Sarah


Having baby Sarah has brought me back memories when i was a little girl myself, or perhaps not too long ago when i was a young teenager. One thing's for sure... because baby Sarah loves to listen to mummy singing her lullabies, mummy has to browse through her song bank stored in her brains (collection of over 20 years! hahaha!)

I've been singing to her some tunes to put her to sleep or to calm her down when she's feeling anxious or restless. Some tunes are actually unknown - just some melody that do not sound bad. :p Ask Sarah.. she's the judge! hahaha! Well, other than those unknown tunes, what's familiar that's been coming out from my mouth are some Worship songs (both English & Mandarin! wah, i can sing Mandarin songs! kakaka...), Christmas songs, Children songs (learnt when i was a kid in Children's Church... kekeke... songs like "This Little Light of Mine", "Ho-ho-ho-hosanna..", "Jesus loves me this i know" and "Jesus loves the little children"), and not forgetting the old faithful rhymes i learnt when i was a kid too! hehehe... It's kinda fun to think that i've not forgotten them. Having a song bank is really helpful to us both hubby and self because it got us closer with baby, and with our Lord Jesus too.

Thank God for songs! :)
