Maddie loves music. At night we play lullabies and soothing music for her. One of my favorite night time CDs is Putumayo Dreamland. It is a collection of wonderful music from around the world. Inside the front cover it reads, "Right now, it is bedtime somewhere in the world. As you read this, a parent is singing their child to sleep with the lilting melody of a sweet lullaby. The song is always soft and slow, filled with love, affection, and comfort..." I just love how similar we all are, no matter where we are in the world. While I am rocking Maddie to sleep and listen, I often think of the many wonderful places we have had the chance to visit and how the mothers from those far off lands are rocking their babies to sleep too.
