sentimental family music HELP!

I am making a mix CD to play at our different sittings... I already made a little little kid one and a couple in love one and a teenager one.... I am crafting a family CD- to encourage warm mushy feelings to make people buy more. There it is. Crass as it is. Here's the thing- as hard as I work, if they don't buy the picture then the child never gets to see it and all that work is lost... anyway--

So I've come up with:

I Hope You Dance Lee Ann Womack
Let Them Be Little (this song makes me cry--and exactly gets how I feel about children... actually- I am putting the lyrics here..)

Let Them Be Little by Billy Dean

I can remember when you fit in the palm of my hand.
You felt so good in it; no bigger than a minute.
How it amazes me you're changin' with every blink.
Faster than a flower blooms, they grow up all too soon.

So let them be little,
'Cause they're only that way for a while.
Give 'em hope, give them praise,
Give them love every day.
Let 'em cry, let 'em giggle,
Let 'em sleep in the middle,
Oh, but let them be little.

I never felt so much in one little tender touch.
I live for those kisses, your prayers an' your wishes.
An' now you're teachin' me how only a child can see.
Tonight, while we're on our knees, all I ask is:

Please, let them be little,
'Cause they're only that way for a while.
Give them hope, give them praise,
Give them love every day.
Let 'em cry, let 'em giggle,
Let 'em sleep in the middle,
Oh, but let them be little.

The so innocent, precious soul:
You turn around, an' it's time to let them go.

So let them be little,
'Cause they're only that way for a while.
Give them hope, give 'em praise,
Give them love every day.
Let 'em cry, let 'em giggle,
Let them sleep in the middle,
Oh, but let them be little.

Let them be little.

and...

Sign, Sealed, Delivered by Stevie Wonder
100 Years by Five for Fighting
Give a Little Bit by Supertramp
These are the Days by 10,000 Maniacs
The Loving by XTC (doesn't really fit well...)

Anyway- I need help!! Any songs get you mushy about your family?

Lyrics for Song: I Loved Her First
Lyrics for Album: Heartland Lyrics
Look at the two of you dancing that way
Lost in the moment and each others face
So much in love your alone in this place
Like there's nobody else in the world
I was enough for her not long ago
I was her number one
She told me so
And she still means the world to me
Just so you know
So be careful when you hold my girl
Time changes everything
Life must go on
And I'm not gonna stand in your way

But I loved her first and I held her first
And a place in my heart will always be hers
From the first breath she breathed
When she first smiled at me
I knew the love of a father runs deep
And I prayed that she'd find you someday
But it still hard to give her away
I loved her first

How could that beautiful women with you
Be the same freckle face kid that I knew
The one that I read all those fairy tales to
And tucked into bed all those nights
And I knew the first time I saw you with her
It was only a matter of time

But I loved her first and I held her first
And a place in my heart will always be hers
From the first breath she breathed
When she first smiled at me
I knew the love of a father runs deep
And I prayed that she'd find you someday
But its still hard to give her away
I loved her first

From the first breath she breathed
When she first smiled at me
I knew the love of a father runs deep
Someday you might know what I'm going through
When a miracle smiles up at you
I loved her first

What daddy could not buy pics of his baby girl or girls after hearing this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
