When I was a young girl I attended a children’s meeting once a week, during the week, for church. As girls got older they progressed through a girls only program. The youngest group were called Gaynotes. Back in the sixties the word gay still only meant happy or cheerful.
I was so excited to be a Gaynote. I loved the Gaynote code and song. I dreamed that one day I would be the cheeriest mom and do exactly what the motto and song said. Sad to say I never established that habit.
It’s never too late to start. What a great way to create happy thoughts!
Gaynote Code
“I will bring the light of the gospel into my home by greeting the day with a song.”
Gaynote Class Song
My Code
The first thing in the morning and all day long
I shall be a Gaynote and sing a happy song;
I shall greet the new day and all it brings
With a cheerful face and a heart that sings.
