Pikku Mailin

By Minnamari on December 28, 2024 8:56 pm

Wanted to drop in for one last submission for this last week. Something very simple, but also special. I'm making up songs for my baby as she's laying on the sofa and practicing lifting her neck up and looking around (she's super curious and seems to want to get out exploring and gets frustrated when her limbs wont bring her forward. But thankfully she has two servants who carry her around, showing the lamps and plants of our house..) I decided to simply record one of my spontaneous songs with her. This is the music I'm focusing on for the time being. I notice some productivity programming in me saying this is not enough of a song, it's short and simple and silly. But that's why I need to share it, to challenge that programming and show respect for this stage of life. The everyday creativity. It is enough. That's a part of life too. And anyway, that's the music I want to make. Music of life. Sometimes it's sitting in solitude, experimenting with sounds by the computer. Sometimes it's singing with a baby.

Wishing you all a wonderful holidays/yule/xmas and new year!



(pikku Mailin means little Mailin, it's a song celebrating that she came to us. And the words change each time I sing it, I sing about what I'm observing her doing.)

Thank you. smile

Heeeey, you came back for one more submission, I'm so happy!
This is immensely cute, thank you for sharing it with us. It's especially sweet to hear the baby cooing throughout, so nice.
And I 100% agree, this is still super creative and worthy of the WB stage. I think the whole point of this thing is to get ALL sorts of music from all parts of the world and all stages of life too.
Wishing you and your family a wonderful 2025!!!

Best weekly beat ever, super special!!! Thank you for sharing and for making music with little Mailin, have a wonderful year.

What a sweet song. Singing to babies is the best. They appreciate our sounds. I love this: "two servants who carry her around, showing the lamps and plants of our house." heart
I appreciate your thoughts about challenging the assumptions and everyday creativity is enough. Yes! Any song is enough, thanks for dropping back in to share this, and thanks for all the music this year, I'm grateful that I heard it! All the best to you and the family in 2025, happy new year!

Hello you two! Such a sweet moment you captured. Immediately remembered the time, when I was glued to my little ones.
It was a great time this year, having you on board and listening to your music and philosophical point of views. Wish you all the best for the future. And from now on I connect Finland to Minnamari forever.
