Madison's Song

Madison and MiMi--in the days when she liked my singing

When Madison was born I made up a little song that I would sing to her all of the time. When she got old enough, she would smile whenever I would sing it to her. I haven't sung it to her in a while. She does most of the singing now and usually tells me to "Hush, MiMi" whenever I try to sing anything. My how times change...The words to the song went like this:




Madison, Madison


Prettiest little girl under the sun!


Madison, Madison


Eat the hotdog, but not the bun!


Madison, Madison


Playing with you is so much fun!


Madison, Madison


Remember, don't ever play with a gun!


Madison, Madison


I bet you won't ever like to run!


Madison, Madison


Eat too much and you'll weigh a ton!


Madison, Madison


I'm out of words, so my song is done!
I miss the old days when I'd sing "The Madison Song" and always get a smile...Today I sang the old song called "The Name Game" (Maddie, Maddie bo baddie, bonana fanna fo faddie, Fee fy mo maddie, Maddie) and got a smile and a laugh! Maybe I haven't quite lost my touch!
