"Lullaby In Blue"

I found this song shortly after placing my son C for adoption and the first time I heard it he was only a couple weeks old: Bette Midler's "Lullaby in Blue".
She is a N-Mother and that song has profoundly affected me.  The second song I found to relate even more to is "My Heart Is Broken" by Evanesence.

Each song is drastically different and yet uniquely the same. Whenever I listen to them I can instantly cry or scream or just feel the sadness that I tuck away most days. They both help me deal with the hard days when I feel I can't go on and just need to cry it out.






On the Birth Mom Buds blog website, every Monday they feature a song. I posted My Heart is Broken on their page and founder Coley loved it so much she asked if she could post it on a Music Monday. I felt honored that she enjoyed it. Do you have certain music that helps you deal with the grief, sadness, and anger? Feel free to share in the comments! I hope to hear more about what you guys do to get through a hard day.

    1. I truly believe that song was written with truth about adoption. That it's not always the "unicorn and rainbow" story that everyone wants you to think it is.
