Sunday Session–Back to School

It was back to school this week for 2 of my boys. I’m finding it really hard to believe that I only have 1 in primary school and 1 in high school now. Today, my Sunday Session is a reflection on my school days based on the years my boys are in this year.

Jacob is in Grade 2 this year and a few decades ago I was too.

According to Ken’s Music Report, the #1 single the year I was in Grade 2 was “You’re the One That I Want” by Olivia Newton-John and John Travolta

 

Christian in starting Year 10 and sometime back in the ‘80’s, I did too. The #1 song that year was “You’re the Voice” by John Farnham.

Sunday Sessions

Today, I’m linking up with Sunday Sessions hosted by Cass Can Sew.

I have a guilty little pleasure that I indulge in every night when I drive to work – Richard Mercer’s “Love Song Dedications” on Mix.  The few weeks he was off the air over the holidays, I station flicked or popped a CD in my car. For the 40 minutes I’m in the car driving to work, I’m in a happy place, listening to his deep, soothing voice and endless love songs. Yes I know I’m a big old sap.

Here are a few of my favourites
