I have written a lullaby for each one of my kids. Carson has "his song", Kenzie has "her song" , and now it was time to give Madison "her own song". I've loved to do this when they are babies, so they can grow up hearing me sing it to them to sleep. The other two kids still love me to sing them their song at bedtime. I always write the Lullaby's when I'm holding them. It helps give me ideas of what to write each song about.
Anyway, I finally finished Maddie's Lullaby and so I thought I would share it with you. 
Gift from Heaven
You are a gift from Heaven
You were sent down here to me
As a gift from Heaven
So soft, and pure, and sweet
And I will kiss you everyday
And I will wipe your tears away
And I will love you, come what may
Because you are a gift from Heaven
You are a gift from Heaven
And so I will hold you tight
And I will gently rock you
As the day turns into night
And as you softly close your eyes
And I sing your lullaby
Please remember, all your life
That you are a gift from Heaven
-Cami Jo

Oh my goodness, Madison's face is absolutely adorable in every one of those pictures! You really caught some good ones there! She is SO stinkin' cute! What a precious lullaby also! You're amazing. And what the heck? I didn't know you were moving back to Utah! How awesome! Is James totally done up there? That's awesome! It will be so much fun to have you home! And close by in Draper too! We definitely need to hang out more often. I miss you too!

What a great thing for a mom to do: write each child their very own lullaby, how wonderful! I did not know you did that! Now I want to hear all of them! And hear you sing all of them too!!! Come on, you could post a video of you singing them!!
If only I could sing...I am awful...but you have inspired me to try to do more things like that for my kids!
PS: Don't worry...I have been "off" for awhile now and still have my days where I am wondering where I put my brain! And I have no idea what I will do when i have another baby....cuz then I will be the mother of FOUR!!! Wierd...
What beautiful lyrics! That is a great tradition. I bet you are a great mom. She is adorable Cami!
How special! You are so talented.

Cami, that is such a great idea. Madison is so cute. It is amazing how fast they grow. I love that dress she is wearing so cute!
CAMI!!! I miss you so much!
Ryder and I bought a house two weeks ago. In Island Park. I am the camp director for the ward, and just got released from primary (5-6). They called me as 2nd counselor in YW. When they called me I thought of you! Love your baby... so cute. When was she born? Kenzie is so old. Carson is blonde!!! Wow!
Where do you live? Miss you,
Madison
Go you! well done!
What a unique and beautiful gift to give each of your little ones! I love the lullaby. And can I just say...again...what a darling little girl you have. Your kids are so cute!!!
You are so talented...and what a cute mom! That is such a sweet lullaby and brought tears to my eyes. Your kids are so lucky to have you for their mom! Those are things they will remember for the rest of their lives!
