Music of the day – Over the river and through the woods …

Today I will be setting up my “Music of the day” posts for the Christmas season, and so I thought I would also include the days between Thanksgiving and the first Sunday in Advent.

By the way, if  you have a favorite seasonal song that I haven’t included in past years, I will be happy to include it!

One of a few things that I remember from kindergarten is learning this song for Thanksgiving. The other two are making clay snakes, and napping on the rug that my mother knit for me.

Some of us travel to be with family or friends on Thanksgiving, so this song seems appropriate. As a little girl, we did travel to “grandmother’s house” (my mother’s first husband’s mother!) for Thanksgiving, so it has memories for me in more than one way.

    Thanks Stella.
    This is a song that is often overlooked, although music is a special part of the season.
    Looking forward to each day’s selection.

    Never heard it with a change of cadence like that.
