Today we are talking song writing! I have been getting into it more and more lately as I have found it a great tool to practice singing as well for several reasons. One is that I am not trying to sound like someone else, so I can relax, two is I can just listen and see if it sounds good or not. So I am curious... Have you wrote a song before? If so, leave some stories please. If not, tell us why, we want to to know!

I decided to write some songs to teach my little kids about my own flavor of spirituality. I'm in the rabbit hole now and hope to compose a few songs soon since my three year old is getting her own Uke next month! Should be fun when I've got it all together and we can "jam".
