Actually after I posted I thought of 2 more songs Lee Greenwoods God Bless the USA which I cried to many a time when my son was in the Navy and was in the Strait of Hormuz. Another is from the Polar Express When Christmas comes to Town. : ) Again thanks for the Blogfest!Gossip_Grlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06603645371306284338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11634512.post-45830024408301437342012-03-31T12:18:57.262-04:002012-03-31T12:18:57.262-04:00Thanks for organizing the Sad Songs Blogfest, most...Thanks for organizing the Sad Songs Blogfest, most enjoyable to take part.<br /><br />Yvonne.RHYTHM AND RHYMEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11386975261804630799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11634512.post-47557590782740906542012-03-31T11:07:29.425-04:002012-03-31T11:07:29.425-04:00I simply had too much going on being an A to Z co-...I simply had too much going on being an A to Z co-host with everything else I'm doing, so I knew I couldn't take part in this blogfest because I knew I would become consumed with it!
