Ashlyn's Lullaby

Ever since Ashlyn was born, I've been trying to find a lullaby for her that I really like.  When she was 8 weeks old, I posted this in one of my blogs:

My new obsession is finding some songs for Ashlyn. I'm not into the typical lullabies that the mobiles and swing have. I want something different for my little girl. I think I found it. Well, it's not really different but it's cute and it made me tear up. What do you think? Is this a good bed time song?
Goodnight My Angel

While I still really like that song, I think I found one that is better.  I love this song and it was right in front of me...I just forgot about it until recently.  The first time I heard this song was on So You Think You Can Dance. 


The shadows are waltzing
The moon beams are calling
Like a dream I am falling into
Silver threads lined with dew twinkling stars seem
To shine just for you

Behind your eyes
Are endless blue skies
You travel places I want to come to
Each breath that you breathe is a brush stroke
That leads me to you

So, sleep
Fall into night’s indigo hue
Believe me it’s true
There’s nothing that I would not do
For my dream is sweet dreams for you

It seems far away
but there once was a day
It was grey in a world without you
To this heart like a doll from above
A miracle of your love found me
(this is my favorite part of the song)

So, sleep
Fall into night’s indigo hue
Believe me it’s true
There’s nothing that I would not do
For my dream is sweet dreams for you

So hush-a-bye
And don’t you cry
Sweetly dreaming, little baby

Yes, sleep
Lose yourself in night’s indigo hue
Believe me it’s true
There’s nothing that I would not do
For my dream is sweet dreams
Yes, my dream is sweet dreams for you


What do you think?  Is this a good song for Ashlyn?

Blog Commenting Challenge!

Linking up with Jenna's Journey  for the 3rd Annual Blog Commenting Challenge! Hi! I'm Vanessa! I live with my husband Bryan and my amazing 6 month old Ashlyn in Pennsylvania. I was born and raised here and love it very much! We have 2 pugs, Katie and Utley, one black lab, Camo and one cat, Joey. Our second cat, Kitty, is sadly recently deceased (on Father's Day). I work full time as a Marketing Analyst for a supply chain consulting firm. I don't even know what that means really! I have been here for 3 years and am thinking about a career change. SAHM is looking better and better. My husband owns his own landscaping business which has been both wonderful and horrible at the same time! My husband and I know each other for about 17 years now and we have been together for 12. We got married in September of 2010, just 2 weeks shy of our 10th anniversary! We got pregnant after only 2 months of trying and last December we were greeted by Ashlyn Marie Miller,

I'm Not Gonna Lie

Anyone who knows me know that I LOVE Christmas.  I love the decorations.  I love to decorate my own house and see all of the other cool decorations other people have.  There is a house down the street from us that always has more lights and decorations than I have ever seen in one yard.  It's a bit much but it's an attention grabber. I love the Christmas tree.  I love to get the tree out each year (yes we have a fake because I can't stand the needles) and I love to decorate it.  Growing up, our family would decorate the tree together with all kinds of ornaments that we had collected over the years.  I like to do themes for my trees.  Last year I did pink and silver in honor of the newest member of our family.  I'm really hoping to instill the tradition of decorating the tree with my kids. I love finding the perfect gifts for people and I love to watch their reactions when they open those gifts.  I generally wait until I have purchased ALL of my gifts, I sort them
