And When I Die There Will Be One Child Born

My first husband and I were big fans of '60's
band Blood, Sweat & Tears. Our song was,
'You Make Me So Very Happy" but after
he wasn't happy with marriage & fatherhood
I chose 'And When I Die' as a song to follow
the remainder of my life.

If you find time to listen to the words of this
song and you are a parent it will remind you
to leave the right legacy. If you use playlist.com
you can find just about any song out there.
I will use music titles a lot in my blogs.
You may want to add that site to your favorites.

'And when I die, and when I'm gone there will
be one child born and this world to carry on.'
As a young mother I really thought the world
was on my shoulders-but it wasn't. My problems
just seemed so large because no one gave me that
Marriage & Parenthood How to book!
Oh-there really isn't one! I couldn't bring myself
to read Dr. Spock (the baby book-there was no Star
Trek yet) because he didn't have children nor was
he able to give birth. Today my favorite books
are those by Vicki Iovine, wife of Interscope
Records Chairman, Jimmy Iovine -I always hope
one day my son can try to play the long lost cousin
to Jimmy and get some touring money from the
label.

Alas, And when I die and when I am dead and gone.
There will be one child born and a world to carry on.
I hope there will be some who are able to cope because
my son is a musician and his music speaks from the
times and is meant to entertain.

Also from Blood,Sweat & Tears it is safe to conclude
with the song, 'God Bless the child that's got his own'
