I know so many children's songs from my childhood, church camp, cds, tv shows, etc. I can usually sing along to the song when I hear it-word for word. So why is it, then, that when I am actually singing songs to my kids at bedtime or while rocking them, I can only ever think of about 6-8 songs that I sing over and over again.
* My Favorite Things (Sound of Music)
* Hail, Purdue (fight song-they don't stand a chance liking any other school)
* Take Me Out to the Ballgame (Go Cubs)
* Amazing Grace
* Rock-A-Bye Baby
* Jesus Loves the Little Children
* Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star or Baa Baa Black Sheep (Avery's requests)

The letter A, Dora's baby sister, and a Snoopy Truck
What do these three items have in common? They have all gone MIA at one time somewhere in the land of the missing toys. Thankfully, all of the aforementioned toys have been found and put back in their place.
This sort of thing really bothers some people and barely affects others. Some people stay awake at night thinking about the missing item. For me, it's mostly an annoyance...knowing that the stinking missing piece is somewhere in your home because you haven't taken the toy anywhere. So you spend minutes or hours looking all over the house for the piece until finally you find it somewhere you swear you've looked a hundred times. When the piece is finally found, it's such a relief. At least until the next piece goes missing and the hunt begins again.
