Talking to those who have left the world and hearing their response OUT LOUD.

When I was a teen, I would stay up late talking to boyfriends. If the clock hit 11:11 while we were on the phone, we'd make a wish. This song was inspired by past loves and heartbreak.

I wrote this a number of years ago. One of my friends on Facebook posted a picture of herself in Mexico, with a caption, "One margarita from a perfect day". I just loved how that sound. It's just an easy-going tune.

I am very nostalgic. There are people who have come and gone in my life, and I often wonder what life would be like if they were still in it. This song also won 2019 Best Original Song at the Mississippi Music Awards.

I didn't want kids. And somehow they were had! The first year of parenting was a blur. I didn't think I was falling in love like everyone told me I would. Then one night, I put her to sleep and felt her breathing. I didn't want to put her down. I started a prayer that night 11 years ago, Father to father, please slow it down. I don't want want to miss anything else. She's 12 now and I still cry every time I play it!
