“You are My Sunshine”

When your son is on the road – driving –  stops  –  to call his Mother  –“You are my  Sunshine – you make me so  “Happy”  –  when skies are gray!”  I just felt like  a “Million Dollar Baby!”

The sky  was gray  with a forecast of rain and snow .  But, hearing the “Sunshine song”, I was thinking this is the day the  “Lord” has made and started fixing a breakfast with eggs!

Looking out the window  –  I think the “Weather Man” made a mistake, because the  Sun is Shinning brightly, here! No left-over snow in the Park and no piles of the white stuff up and down the River banks. The River level is very low  –  looks like rain is what we need?

Beside the  “Sun Shinning”, my son  calls  back again –  driving for hours does require  “rest stops” be taken – and what better way to share what you are doing than to call good ole’ Mom!  And the best part is to sing a song  –“You are my Sunshine  – You make me so Happy – You never know “Dear” how much I Love You!”  “You make me Happy  – Please don’t take my “Sunshine” away!”

I know the words – but this little song is the “Medicine Song” –  My Mother sang to me  –  I sang it to my children and to my grandchildren.  Now my children sing to me.  So, if I was complaining  of not feeling good yesterday? “I feel like a million  –  Today!”
