You are my sunshine, my only sunshine.
You make me happy, when skies are gray.
You’ll never know dear, how much I love you.
Please don’t take my sunshine away.

The other night dear, as I lay sleeping.
I thought I felt you by my side.
But when I woke dear, I was mistaken,
So I hung my head and cried.

You know this song? I think these are the right words. They’re the ones I sing anyway, to Eve almost every nap and bedtime. She loves it. Tonight I started singing it while the kids were in the tub and it made Lex cry! I couldn’t believe it. The poor boy was really, truly crying. He told me he doesn’t like the song because the second verse is too sad. I wrapped him in a towel and cuddled him for a bit while he got himself pulled together. I’m not sure what to make of that. He’s so sweet and so… I don’t, just sweet, I guess.
