Madeline performs the cabbage patch song

I first heard this song when I was a five years old. I thought the harmony was so beautiful that it made me cry, although I didn't know it was harmony at the time! My sister and I used to sing it together CONSTANTLY, and we still do, 20+ years later. And now Madeline, my niece/my sister's daughter, loves it, too! She is shy, so I had to leave the camera on the bookshelf and leave the room. =)

Arguably one of the first grown-up things I ever did was when I was 11, and about to leave my first school. My parents entered me into an entrance exam for a posh school. I was alone in a huge hall full of alarmingly competitive strangers, feeling rather lost and uncertain, hoping I could go home soon. Partway through the hardest part, this song popped into my head in total clarity, as if I could just barely hear it. Let me tell you, I sat the rest of that exam with a Very Serious Face.

I did the same thing with the Christmas Album and the song Mrs.Santa Claus. I'm 36 now and still want to perform it with someone (although it is a solo number) every Christmas.

This song just made me cry. It was my favorite song as a child, and I am so shocked that this was on here. So many memories for my older sister and I. Iove it!

Yesterday I just learned this song on piano and used it in a video contributed to a missing child in a nearby community. Her name's Victoria Stafford. Be sure to watch the video and get a close look because we're all praying for her safe return.

My words EXACTLY! My older sister and I used to dance around to this when I was this kid's age. We were exposed to a lot of great music as children.
