Vanya and songs

Lest you think all we do is make fun of songs, I have two songs for tender moments. One is singing the phrase "I love you very much" over and over to a tune whose origin is unknown. For all I know, I made it up. Ivan recognizes the song, and will actually hug me really tight when I sing it - although it could also be because of the rocking and patting on the back that accompanies the song.

The other song is a morning song to the tune of "Happy Birthday", or actually "How Old are You Now?":

Good morning to you.
Good morning to you.
Good morning, my Vanusha.
Good morning to you.

Or, if both boys are with me:

Good morning, Nikit
Good morning, Vanya.
Good morning, my two boys.
Good morning to you.
