    I let my dad pick and he really appreciated it.  He wanted to dance to My little girl by Tim McGraw.  Second choice was "I loved her first" by Heartland.

    My Dad told me to pick.  I picked Darius Rucker's It Won't Be Like This For Long.  It could change by October, but we will see.

    My dad and I danced to "Kind and Generous" by Natalie Merchant (his fav).  My back up plan was Paul Simon's "Father and Daughter", and just for fun, we played "Daughter" by Loudon Wainwright because the lyrics are just too silly.  :)

    Everything she sees
    she says she wants.
    Everything she wants
    I see she gets.

    That's my daughter in the water
    everything she owns I bought her
    Everything she owns.
    That's my daughter in the water,
    everything she knows I taught her.
    Everything she knows.

    Everything I say
    she takes to heart.
    Everything she takes
    she takes apart.

    That's my daughter in the water
    every time she fell I caught her.
    Every time she fell.
    That's my daughter in the water,
    I lost every time I fought her.
    I lost every time.

    Every time she blinks
    she strikes somebody blind.
    Everything she thinks
    blows her tiny mind.
    That's my daughter in the water,
    who'd have ever thought her?
    Who'd have ever thought?
    That's my daughter in the water,
    I lost everytime I fought her
    Yea, I lost every time.

    Chrisette Michele's  "Your Joy" is a cute option.

    Have you heard the version of Butterfly Kisses by Faith Hill. It's the same name but a different song. The ending gets a little sad but you could always cut it out.

    My dad and I are going to use "baby's got blue eyes" by Elton John because he would sing that to me when I was a baby...but my 2nd choice would be Father and Daugther by Paul Simon I think it was on the wild thornberry's soundtrack it's a beautiful song!  I think you can also find suggestions on this website, they have done articles about mother-son dances.  Good luck!
