30 days of Truth is about bringing out the best in yourself. Also, to let people see the “real” you through what you write. For thirty days I will write about myself, I will dig deep and I hope you can start this journey with me. 30 days of Truth; Are you ready!?
Day 24 – Make a playlist to someone, and explain why you chose all the songs. (Just post the titles and artists and letter)
Dear Jade:
I want you to know how much I love you. May the rest of your days be filled with joy and happiness. These songs have the deepest meanings for me, and so I want you to hear them. You may be too young to understand their meanings now, but I see you growing up so quickly now a days, I know it would be long before you can understand them. I love you Jade. Thank you for being such a miracle baby, giving me peace and comfort and loving me. Thank you for giving me those random kisses and hugs, and the shout out ‘I love you’ as you walk away from me. You have completed my heart in a lot of ways, and for that I am forever grateful and loved.
I love you Jade
Your Mom
For I will be with you, even if I am not beside you every day. I will hang on to you when you need me, I will be here to give you strength when you are weak. I will be your hero, if you just keep looking up at me.
In My Daughter’s Eyes – Martina McBride
I never want to see you cry, you will always be my sweet child o’ mine 🙂
Sweet Child O’ Mine – Guns N’ Roses
No one has to make me believe in heaven. All I have to do is look at my daughter and I believe. You are truly a miracle, and such a blessing! You make me laugh everyday, you dance around the living room and sing a long to the TV. You have brighten my life so much!
Live – Heaven
I will make mistakes, but I will always tell you I am sorry. Just believe in me, when I tell you I am sorry. I will fall, I will slip, I am human, just like you. I will always be your mom, you can’t trade me in, but just know when I do something wrong, I am sorry… Just believe in me!
Daughtry – Sorry
Just know I sang this to you every night when we brought you home from the hospital. It was after Christmas, but you would go right to sleep when I was rocking you. I still to this day sing this to you when you wake up in the middle of the night and don’t want to go to sleep.
David Archuleta – Silent Night

Powerful !
I love the songs you chose and the words to your daughter are ones she will cherish when she is older. It is so wonderful to have special songs for a child… I know a few my adult daughter likes…but the only one I can remember from her childhood is “Get me Two Margaritas, one for each hand” ? Jimmy Buffett? It is a constant joke to this day (she is now 44, and was under five when the song was on the juke box where we got pizza”)….my son’s song at the same time was “Big Bad LeRoy Brown” which he heard “LeRoy Brown” as “CPO” so he sang “Big Bad CPO”. They knew when we came into the pizza parlor on Monday evening. At 44, he remembers the song and the pizza…and M.A.S.H. which he still watches religiously !
Because my children still have those memories, I’m sure your daughter will have these songs, especially “Silent Night” engraved on her heart.

/ July 25, 2011the Big Bad Leroy Brown is one of my hubbys favorites too!! We even have it in the car. It is amazing how songs can leave such footprints in our hearts. 🙂 I hope “Silent Night” will be there forever. I want her to keep remembering everyday for things I have done good in her life. 🙂 Thank you for such a wonderful comment.
