It is one of my favorite songs to sing to my kiddos. It reminds me of my Grandma.
I love you, a bushel and a peck. A bushel and a peck and a hug around the neck. A hug around the neck, and a barrel and a heap. A barrel and a heap and I'm talkin' in my sleep about you.
I might need to make one with the full song though.

Oh, oh, oh, my Grandma sang this to me, too! I thought she made the song up just for me all the way up till I was an adult. When I found out she didn't, I was kinda heart-broken, lol.
I didn't know it was a song... my grandpa use to say "thank you a bushel and a peck, and an ear tied right around your neck" and then he'd smile.... miss him
My mom sings that to all the grandkids. I made pillows with that saying for my sisters one year. Love it!
This is our song! My kids adore it!
LOVE IT! LOVE IT! I sang this to my, now adult, grandsons. It is amazing how many moms and grandmoms sang this song to their little ones. Then again, it absolutely fits the way we feel about those wee ones.
Thanks for reminding us. Hugs, Ginger
My mom sang this to us to when we were teeny tiny and throughout growing up. I just found what I am giving to my mom and sisters for Valentines day this year. Off to check it out. Thanks for sharing this with us!
