Alright so, I made a playlist for my Mom on my Apple Music account and I’ve been wanting to write a blog post about that because we listen to it all the time as we get me ready for the day. Buut I can’t seem to figure out the words to write but I hope to soon. Today, as I was going to put her play list on, I showed her how to navigate my phone to find it and clicked on the playlist button and scrolled through all my playlists (because I have a lot!)
As I was scrolling and showing her my phone, she saw the playlist that is titled, “Daddy” and asked what that was and I told her, she wanted to listen to it. It is a mix that I fall asleep to when I really miss my Dad. I always end up crying and today was no different! They are all really good songs that remind me of my Dad. Toward the end of the playlist, there are a couple songs that are specific to me and how I felt after my Dad had passed. I explained the songs to my Mom as we listened. I’m sure I have written about them before.
There are a couple of songs that remind me of my Mom that we listened to when we were together after my Dad passed. I am reminded of her smiling and giggling and being reminded of the love she and my Dad shared. I really don’t ask her about why because I am NOT, “Grown-up” enough to hear any of that regarding my parents but these two songs are on the playlist. My Mom smiled when she heard the beginning of the songs and then started to giggle.
I don’t ask about the meanings of the songs but I enjoy seeing her smile like she does and I like hearing her let oyt a little giggle.
The playlist only has about 10 songs and we let it play through twice. It made me cry and miss my Dad. The songs were my Dad’s songs and these two reminded me of my Mom being reminded of my Dad and I like that too!
