RE: OT: Irish lullaby (wasAd: Soy Wax Votives)

[Guest guest]

Hi Janet,

 

I just love this one. My Mom sang it to me many nights as I went to sleep

and for the last oh...almost 15 years now I have sang it to my children

almost nightly.

 

I love it I suppose because it holds such fond memories for me. Thanks for

sharing it! I never did know the second verse to it. I'll have to practice

that.
