I love all four seasons but I think autumn might
just be my favorite. With the
cooler temperatures come hearty soups, pumpkin pies, slow-cooked stews, and
marshmallows drowning in hot chocolate.
And perhaps best of all is the stunning display that the changing leaves
offer us before they are lost to winter.
On a brisk October morning in the fall of ’98, I
went with my family on an outing along the river. While on that walk my husband and I reflected on those
things that matter most – our family, our health and the happiness that comes
with an understanding of why we are here on earth. As we were experiencing the autumn forest and our three
young children were darting in and around the aspen trees, the inspiration for
this piece came.
The song with its two-part melody was written for
children’s voices. I so appreciate
my FANTASTIC group of singers who recently made this recording with me. Your brightness and enthusiasm make me
smile! I cannot thank you
enough.
The children are beautiful and precious and so are you. Always keep sharing your passion for beautiful music. Beautiful music elevates the soul! We love you daughter so very much.
