Song for All Seasons

My mom sang this song to me when I was little. We sang this song to all 4 of our children. Now 2 of them sing to us. . .
The second verse was tougher for me especially after Jake and Sawyer died. There were many mornings when I woke up hoping that I was holding our other 2 sons.
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
I will keep singing this song (now with the twins). And hoping for more sunshine.

A Mourning Mom 
Adorable! Any chance that was the song I made you sing on Bourbon St about a million years ago?!?

Here’s wishing you would have so much sunshine that you need to wear your sunglasses everyday.

What a delightful performance! Thank you for posting Alyssa and Fletcher singing who obviously enjoyed singing the song long shared in your family.
Love to all four of you and holiday greetings with warm wishes.
