If you have a baby or are looking for a thoughtful gift for
someone who does, I highly recommend the lullaby album “Blowing Kisses” by Cori
Connors. Cori is a singer/songwriter with the most gentle and heavenly voice that
will sooth your baby and calm your own nerves.
When my first baby would cry inconsolably
I would turn on this album and her
gentle voice helped both of us calm down. One song in particular, “Sleep Little
Lamb”, would make our son stop crying within the first few notes of the song.
Her soft melodies and relate-able lyrics are something I treasure. If her songs
get stuck in your head you’ll enjoy singing them, unlike so many other children’s
songs I’ve come across. Another reason I love Cori’s music is I grew up in a
home just a few doors down from her and have been blessed by her music most of
my life. I attended her annual Christmas concert in November 2014 when I was 7
months pregnant with my first child. She performed some of her songs from her
then recently released lullaby album. The combination of it being a voice I associate
with my childhood, the anticipation of my first child and the excitement of Christmastime
made the album magical for me personally. But from an unbiased perspective, it
really is a phenomenal lullaby album.
