Drowning peacefully in the deep mellow tones of Sade. She soothes me like no other and every time I listen to her, she brings out my sensuality, my sex and my soul. Sometimes she makes me cry, her lyrics so potent and memorable and relate-able. But always, I like how she touches me.
Just sent my daughter this text:
“In Sade mode right now :) Did I ever tell you her song Sweetest Gift is my personal song to you, my beautiful daughter? Well, it is. And, I actually had a conversation with the moon ;) Love you baby. Just more moosh from the mujjah xo”
I’m so in love with my kid.
With her in it, life is always good.
The day she was born, I peeked into heaven.
She truly is my sweetest gift.

The Sweetest Gift /Written by Sade
(Here’s a uTube link if you’re interested )
Quietly while you were asleep
The moon and I were talking
I asked that she’d always keep you protected
She promised you her light
That you so gracefully carry
You bring your light and shine like morning
And then the wind pulls the clouds across the moon
Your light fills the darkest room
And I can see the miracle
That keeps us from falling
She promised all the sweetest gifts
That only the heaven’s could bestow
You bring your light and shine like morning
And as you so gracefully give
Her light as long as you live
I’ll always remember this moment.
