William, did you know you have thirteen great-aunts? They all love you so much.
I grab hold of any connection I can to William, and I believe music is one connection. It moves you and pulls you into different emotions. It was hard in the beginning to listen to music, but we are starting again to discover the joy that music offers.
It makes me happy to think that maybe William listens to beautiful music too. Perhaps lullaby's like this one that you could listen over and over again. Thank you, Auntie Anne for your beautiful singing and Grandma Schneider for catching this on video!
Somewhere over the rainbow, bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh why can't I?
Somewhere, over the rainbow, skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true
Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow, bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why, can't I?
I believe that music connects us, brings us together, and takes us away for a little while. I'm so glad we were able to be there that day to celebrate William and continue to think of him daily. Love you. ❤️
