Scripture memorization and this self realization

Today I read a few snippets of articles that talked about the value of scripture memorization when it comes to teaching kids about faith in Jesus and His word. That brought back memories of vacation Bible school in a small … Read the rest

Real kids songs where the school bell ding dongs

(this is for adults, don’t watch kiddos) One of my collections of real kids songs is called Kiddin’ Around. When it first came out, I sold a bunch of CD’s. Yes, those plastic discs that you actually had to put … Read the rest

Milky Way Galaxy in a place you'll never see.

Elara lived in the star-island village of Millezza (pronounced milletsa, with the accent on the et). I’m sure you never heard of her or her hometown. Because they’re located at the Northwest corner of the Milky Way Galaxy. Of course, … Read the rest

Evening sunset she will never forget

Amelia sat by the window. And the soft glow of the evening sunset shined warm shades of orange and yellow across the nursery. As twilight settled on the crib, she hoped tonight would be different. Because her baby, Lily, had … Read the rest

Drifting off to sleep till the jerks start to creep

What’s with all these hypnic jerks who bug you just when you’re drifting off to sleep. How incredibly rude! And embarrassing. Sort of. Maybe it’s just me. Have you ever had to deal with ’em as you’re drifting off to … Read the rest

Down to sleep with a soul to keep

I remember learning the Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep prayer way before I “went to school.” Naturally, I didn’t get the full meaning of it, at the time. Because I was a little kid. I just loved the … Read the rest

Rest easy dear child, may your dreams all be mild

It’s triple digits temps around here again. Multiple triple digits already. And multiple more to come. As a next-door neighbor used to say, “It’s brutal.” And if you don’t have the convenience of modern air conditioning, I can’t imagine you’ll … Read the rest

Feather dance not by chance in this circumstance

If you’ve ever seen the movie “Forrest Gump” you might remember seeing a feather dance around him and his surroundings at the bus stop. Of course, I’m sure you’re all savvy enough to know that little feather didn’t make all … Read the rest

Red and white equestrian delight

Red and white. Red is a bold, beautiful primary color. And white, as I learned in art class (but isn’t absolutely scientifically true) is the absence of color. Put the two of them together, in stripes, and you’ve got a … Read the rest

Dreamy time before the night takes you up into flight

I never raised any kids of my own. And, for that matter, I never raised anyone else’s kids either. And some people might say that disqualifies me to write songs for kids. But I disagree. Because I WAS a kid. … Read the rest

Umbilical cord struck a lyrical chord

Be clean and fun until the job is done

Children’s songs should be clean. Not explicit. Because kids should be cared for and safe until the job of raising them is done. And the wrong kind of music (yes, I said “wrong kind”) can be unhealthy and unsafe. I … Read the rest

May birthstone in the poetic zone

Being a parent without the inerrant

Being a parent, especially one with a baby or young child, can be isolating. That was a headline that caught my eye this morning. And maybe it’s just me (I doubt it), but that kind of parent seems like the … Read the rest

Trillion trails of information in your personal constellation

G rated movies went invisible and silent

Be a dreamer, not a mainstreamer

Dreamers dream. And here’s something that’s cool. You don’t have to be an author, painter, philosopher, or songwriter to be a dreamer. Plumbers, carpenters, and electricians can all be dreamers. So can doctors, lawyers, and even (gulp) politicians (although most … Read the rest

Celtic art directly from the heart

Pro life songs are awful singalongs
