Although it has nothing to do with adoption per se, I love the song Thanksgiving by Poi Dog Pondering. The "road" to becoming DD's parents was a long and hard one, and this song says "Would our paths cross, if every great loss had turned out a gain?" And it reminds me that there was a "perfect" reason for our struggles...they led us to the most amazing child in the world!
I like the Rainbow Connection but sung by Sarah Maclaughlin. Not necessarily an adoption song but it's kind of my song with DS. His Lullabye playlist starts with it. It's our Anthem! Also Angels the Robbie Williams song as sung by David Archuletta. Robbie wrote the song about his Grandmother but I feel like it applies to E's birth mother as well.
Some of my fav's... Trisha Yearwood - You're where I belong (from the Stuart Little soundtrack) Rascal Flat's song...I think it's called God Blessed the Broken road..... and Amanda Marshal - If I didn't have you. This is the one that I totally broke down over when DS was a couple weeks old....it just REALLY hit home, especially at that time.

I always boo hooed when I heard "Blessed" byt Elton John- The lyrics are below... and also "A New Day ( has come) by Celine Dion-- both of those songs still put a lump in my throat![FONT=Garamond] Blessed by Elton John[/FONT][FONT=Garamond]Hey you, you're a child in my head You haven't walked yet Your first words have yet to be said But I swear you'll be blessed I know you're still just a dream your eyes might be green Or the bluest that I've ever seen Anyway you'll be blessed And you, you'll be blessed You'll have the best I promise you that I'll pick a star from the sky Pull your name from a hat I promise you that, promise you that, promise you that You'll be blessed I need you before I'm too old To have and to hold To walk with you and watch you grow And know that you're blessed [/FONT]
-Somewhere Out There (from the American Tale soundtrack - from way back in the day!)-Two Worlds, One Family (from the Tarzan Soundtrack - this is my ringtone whenever the agency or bmom calls!)-Cinderella by Stephen Curtis Chapman-When Love Takes You In by Stephen Curtis Chapman (makes me cry EVERY time I watch the video on youtube!)-not really adoption, but I would love to see DH dance with DD to the song "Everything" by Michael Buble!-"Bubbly" by Colbie Caillat because just thinking of DD makes me feel bubbly!

This song by Mark Shultz is amazing. It is about him, as an adult father looking back on his birthmothers choice to place him for adoption and him getting to meet her one day in Heaven. It's basically saying that you made the right choice. It is a beautiful song. Mark is a Christian singer. I have the this album and it's amazing. It is called "Everything to Me"
I must have felt your tears When they took me from your arms I’m sure I must have heard you say goodbye Lonely and afraid had you made a big mistake Could an ocean even hold the tears you cried But you had dreams for me You wanted the best for me And you made the only choice you could that night (Chorus) You gave life to me A brand new world to see Like playing baseball in the yard with dad at night Mom reading Goodnight Moon And praying in my room So if you worry if your choice was right You gave me up but you gave everything to me And if I saw you on the street Would you know that it was me And would your eyes be blue or green like mine Would we share a warm embrace Would you know me in your heart Or would you smile and let me walk on by Knowing you had dreams for me You wanted the best for me And I hope that you’d be proud of who I am (Chorus) You gave life to me A chance to find my dreams And a chance to fall in love You should have seen her shining face On our wedding day Oh is this the dream you had in mind When you gave me up You gave everything to me And when I see you there Watching from heaven’s gates Into your arms I’m gonna run And when you look in my eyes You can see my whole life See who I was And who I’ve become (Chorus)
