Thanks, Chris!~

Yeah, the perfect photo for Janet's poem.
I am getting so excited about what all of you are submitting. You are the best.

Why not lullabies for Semp's to bed them down in winter. Poor babies right Greg?

Cute idea Arif!

Meanwhile I'm still trying to come up with an "ode to Semps" but not a lullaby...I've heard that Lynn sings to her plants?? Maybe Lynn you'll have to let us know what you sing!

Lynn yes please what is your secret recipe to keeping them happy?
Regards,
Arif.

I sing what ever silly words come into my head. And only when I am alone with the plants.

Or think you're alone!

Isn't that embarrassing! Happens to me all the time!

So enjoyable, and such a happy experience, as long as you know you are alone.

As I get older I care less! Especially about singing! Either it will entertain and interest you or it wont and that's just fine!

I experience more joy from singing if I am by myself. That has never changed.

I did used to sing with all my children in the van while traveling to Dairy Goat shows. Not sure how they felt about that.

My mom used to wake us up singing "Good morning Good morning..." from singing in the rain, and because she couldn't carry a tune we'd all wake right up, if you stayed in bed she'd continue to sing

I used to sing the Good Morning song to our children, and some times 'You Are My Sunshine'. They love it now, and sing it to their children. They didn't like it so much when they were growing up.
How odd that now it holds wonderful memories for them.

I know that's funny! For me too! Are you my sunshine was a fav of my mom's also and both of those are easy to sound pathetic when sung off key!
I love when I hear that song because it reminds me of my mom!
