Top 10 Tracks I'm Digging Right Now

Martina McBrideWe had a family friend pass away this weekend. But she was really more than a friend to us. She was a pioneer in mothering. Her name was Viola Lennon, and back in 1956 she got together with a handful of housewives in her neighborhood to hang out, have coffee and support in each other in their efforts to breastfeed when breastfeeding wasn't cool. That little group grew into La Leche League, which is now the world's largest breastfeeding advocacy group. For me, when my babies were little, it was my go-to group for all kinds of help nourishing and nurturing my little ones. So it's only natural that my taste in music right now is songs that take me back to those days. La Leche League always reminded me that while those days were long, the years were short.

"In My Daughter's Eyes," Martina McBride
"Somebody's Hero," Jamie O'Neal
"Mama's Song," Carrie Underwood
"So Hard," Dixie Chicks
"It Won't Be Like This For Long," Darius Rucker
"The Baby," Blake Shelton
"Baby Girl," Sugarland
"One's on the Way," Loretta Lynn
"I Ain't Dead Yet," Ashton Shepherd
"I Loved Her First," Heartland
