Music

So I know there are some really great blogs out there with links of some sort that allow anyone reading said person(s) blog can listen to music while reading. I love it, but can not figure out how to do this myself. However if I could figure out how to, or when I figure out how to, you will hear some music while you read!

I have grown up with a love of music. Some of my first memories are of my dad singing to me. And I grew up listening to all types of music. Country was the music most listened to, but my parents being so young and also loving music listened to all types. Simon and Garfunkle, The Beatles, Bread, and the BG's just to name a few. Old country and new country, the Tabernacle Choir and easy listening were played as well. And as I grew older and developed my own taste in music they even listen to and liked my choices as well.

I have tried to give this gift of listening to all types of music to my own kids. And its so fun now that they are big enough to pick and develop their own taste in music and to see what they love.

Its fun to look and think back to the songs that were my favorite in my childhood, pre-teens, teens, young adult hood, newlywed, and new mother life stages. Its interesting to me even at this moment to listen to some of my favorites at this point in my life. It seems my favorites all tell a little bit about those moments in my life. Seems like songs are memory keepers that help to tell the story of my life.

So, on occasion you will read and hopefully sometime in the future listen to, bits of songs that remind me of who I was or who I hope to be. Songs about the way I feel or have felt. Songs that have inspired me to do better or to just remember who I am and to just be me. After all "The song(s) remembers when".  :)

  1. When you figure out how to put music on your blog, please share. I've always wondered how.
