You Are My Sunshine, My Only Sunshine

Just sitting here listening to some easy music while I play Scrabble on the computer. The song "You Are My Sunshine" came on and I realized that I use this song just about every day. I sing it to my daughter when I put her down at night as does the hubby. My mother has told me that this is the song she sang to me when I was a baby. I looked up the history of the song on Wikipedia and it was written about 1940. It is also supposed to be the state song for Louisiana. You can read the full history here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You_Are_My_Sunshine, if you like. I had a cat once when I was in college, she was white and I named her Sunshine. Sadly to say someone took her away.
