Default Re: Singing "Gordon Lightfoot" songs !

jj . - I have one idea that'll almost surely have 'em - the kids songs anyway. Its a few minutes of phone work - And my wife use to handle all this stuff; she'd volunteer in the elementary where my daughter was in class "OMG my MOM is the room, how EMBARRASING" lol - that did not happen until around 5th - 'preen age, and its self-consioucness.

Well, my wife would find childrens song books when Mamie was in kindergarden and 1st grade I recall, and Mamie was happy to have her comforting mother there - and the intrinsically "2nd mom" nature of a GOOD elementary school teacher, notably in grades K - 2 or 3.

Anyway - Merry was given reference as to where she got them, turns out for us they were available in the lending library, but could be bought in big-box book stores too like Border's, Barnes & Noble, and no doubt of course Amazon.com and whats the other on-line book source ? can't remember. But to find out where to buy locally in person, my wife found that principal of the school she teacher-aided in , and the librarian(s) in the K-6 schools as well, would be able to cite their purchasing course, if not a big bookstore, and borrwing from the library is insufficient...

The 2 ladies I mention in school above where Mamie went knew the sources - I'd just call an Elementary school in your area, in a good area.... only because they tend to have better resources, sadly, and b morelikely to know. Ours did. Good luck. Didn't mean to "butt-in" in this exchange with what I hope are not painfully obvious no-sh** ideas, but maybe, without K-6 experience in the school, as my wife had, these things would not otherwise occur to you or me.

"Have a Gord day..., and Gord day to you" lol I gotta program that
