The Notebook

OH WOW! I just finished watching "The Notebook" on TV. Even though I've seen it several times, it just squeezes my heart every single time. I love that Ally wrote down the story of her love for Noah. I have written a few songs for my husband, but I don't know if any of them show how much he 'squeezes' my heart too. I sometimes feel like I can't breathe, I love him so much. I've got to write some more. I used to write all the time...I need to just write more. Melodies can always come later. I'll let y'all know what I come up with. Oh, my heart is just so full right now! I'm going to go hug my love!

Why I Write Songs

I have wanted to be a singer since I was three years old. Later in life, now that I am a mother, I have decided that this is my legacy. Maybe the general public will never think that my songs are any good, but they are my legacy to my children. Long after I am gone, they will have my stories, my heart, my prayers in song. No one can take the melodies out of their head and no one can take the lyrics out of their hearts. I also want my stories to show the amazing affect of God in my life. For every prayer request in a song, I want to share the answer. God doesn't always say, 'yes,' but he always says something!
