I Spy a Lullaby

At least once a month one of my kids will do something cute that I want to catch on video.  I'll pull out my cell phone to start filming and instantly the switch flips:  my kids turn into giant hams.  They then harass me into making another video then another.  Typically only the first video is good, the rest are just some ridiculous jumping and screaming.

We do a lot of bedtime songs here.  We have a well-rounded selection, ranging from Disney songs to church/Sunday school songs to show tunes.  We have enough repeats that the kids memorize them and we can have sing-alongs featuring a cappella (You know, singing with no instruments), three-part harmonizations and endless runs.  Take that, Ariel, you've got nothing on us.  

Tonight, Marina monopolized the cell phone video with her beautiful, angelic voice.  I felt the need to share these, in case you were having trouble sleeping and wanted someone to sing you into a gentle slumber.  

(In case you need help with the identification, this is "Reflection" from Mulan.)



(This is "Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus" from a church hymnal somewhere.  
Ignore the word prompt in the middle performed by Celine Dion.  She asked not to be mentioned.)
