23 days agoI LOVE this new version! Thank you! ❤️ We always sing this to my daughter - definitely going to use these new lyrics!
2 months agoCan you link the pattern anytime you're wearing one of your handknits? Love this sweater! (And sending your version of this song to my mom, because she refused to sing it to me)
3 months agoOh this is so beautiful @mama_nous ! We’ve added to Spotify and our nighttime sing along. I loved the alternative lyrics for those co-sleeping, are you likely to record a version of this?
4 months agoI sing the first verse like you do except ill say something like always sunshine or beautiful sunshine (in French I sing jolie sunshine) but the 2nd verse i sing "the other night dear as I lay sleeping i dreamed I held you in my arms, when I awoke dear, twas not mistaken, so I kissed your head and smiled" (I co sleep with my baby so it fits) 😊 all old nursery rhymes are so morbid, why?
4 months agoI love it but I’m a grandma and don’t see her every day — wish I had a way with words like you! ❤️
4 months agoThis is such a sweet version! I heard a version when I was pregnant with my daughter by the Hound + the Fox and that has been my daughter’s comfort song since she was a baby. I changed a just a few words but love that version of the song.
4 months agoI remember when you first posted your version! I memorized it from that video and it’s the only version I sing now. I thought there were issues with the copyright?
4 months agoI sang your version to my 18 month old when she was a newborn, I hadn't sung it to her much lately but tonight she was having a hard time falling asleep and I sang it. She needed an hour of me singing it non-stop. If I switched to humming or stopped singing she sat bolt upright and patted my mouth and signed "more". Whatever she was needing tonight, this song was giving comfort!
4 months agoOh I wish I had this version when my baby was in NICU and I couldn't spend every night with him 🥺 5 weeks and I would tell him every night I left him that I might be out of sight but I'm right in his heart with him. Ugh I hated walking down those hallways after saying goodnight
4 months agoI never liked the original, so I have sung this version to my little one since he was born, and it’s the lullaby that has consistently calmed him when he’s upset 🥹 But in the second verse we sing “and in the night dear, as you lie sleeping, I will be there right by your side”
