Decided to change up the music for nap time today. I usually do some soft piano or Nick Lachey’s hunky lullaby playlist. Today, I stumbled upon a musical therapy playlist.
There’s no words, just calming noise. More than a white noise, but not quite a pop song. All my kids ended up falling asleep rather quickly. Whether it be that they were exhausted or the music actually had a calming effect, they’re currently sleepy soundly.
Gives me some time to clear my mind and internally plan my weekend. I can think about what I have to do for homework without worrying about who is crying or what two kids are fighting. A moment of pure quiet, with some noise in the background. Some peace.
