When my kids were babies, my Dad always used to hum a little tune when he was carrying them and trying to settle them down... it's the sweetest, lilting sound, I've hummed it all my life, always thinking of my Dad when it was in my head. I've…

Well... I have a feeling that many of us may wish for a 2020 do-over. So here's a simple song to make that wish for us all!
Oh Mulligan
I wake up every morning
My jaw is clenched so tight
Even in my dreams it’s a battle
Who’s wrong and…

Great song. I play guitar for my two smallest kiddos every night. I know that once kids get used a tradition, it's a great source of comfort from them.

Another recent song somehow not posted to AT (?) cleaning house this weekend.
Had the privilege of playing around with a cello in the house.
Dont know how to play the damn thing but too fun not adding it in the mix
Working through a barrage of songs over two different computers. thought I posted this already but its not on AT. (?)
A little re-tooling on this one today as well.
Enjoy- Reef
